Breast Revision Patient 10
Description:
This patient had saline implants placed about 12 years prior. She wanted to maintain her volume, but slightly elevate her implants. I removed her textured saline implants and replaced them with slightly larger silicone gel implants. The inferior border of the implant pockets was tightened with sutures called a capsulorrhaphy procedure. Notice that there is now more fullness in the upper portion of the breasts and that the distance from the nipple to the breast crease has been shortened. This gives the breasts a less droopy appearance without the need for a traditional breast lift.
