Breast Revision Patient 37
Description:
This patient had breast implants placed about 5 years ago with another surgeon and has never felt that they seemed quite right. She was also thinking about having a tummy tuck surgery and was hoping to have a revision on her breasts at the same time. The base of her implant pockets were weak allowing the implants to be very palpable. She had her tummy tuck surgery and I altered her implant pocket by reinforcing the inframammary fold and expanding the inner medial aspects of the pocket. The lateral walls were brought in just a bit and she switched her implants for just slightly larger ones. The implants are now more symmetric and stable.
