MRI Confirms Herniated Breast Implant. Can't Find a Surgeon to Fix & Replace Implants

Thank you for the question.

It sounds like you are dealing with a breast implant malposition problem.

It is possible (with high likelihood of success) to correct implant malposition problems of all kinds with capsulorrhaphy techniques that are performed correctly.  

There is a learning curve with this operation and I recommend that you seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon with significant experience treating these problems. You may find the link attached below helpful.

Best wishes.

A muscle hernia is not a true diagnosis but I assume your MRI shows that your silicone has leaked beyond the capsule, into and through the muscle . In general this will require removal of all the tissue and the involved muscle. This may require a two stage operation with the first being removal of the implants and all the silicone material as wel as much of the capsule as possible. At a second operation at least 4-6 months later, you would require breast assessment and possible reconstruciton of the breast with fat grafting.

YES, it is repairable.  Fortunately, Chicago is blessed with a number of excellent plastic surgeons.  The American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons web site will provide you with the names of these individuals.
