Breast implant, lift, scarring. Second revision advice? (Photo)

Thank you for your question. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to breast surgery and revision breast surgery. I have been in practice for over 28 years. In your case, you would benefit from an internal bra procedure - capsulorrhaphy and a revision of your breast lift. I wrote the very first paper on capsulorrhaphy over 20 years ago. If you are on top of the muscle, then I would reposition the implants under the muscle. I wrote that paper too. I find that many surgeons are not skilled at these procedures and have high rate of recurrence. You should be able to have an excellent result. Best wishes to you

Dear Resourceful845473,
breast revision surgery is the most difficult plastic surgery procedure performed. Botched breast surgery alters normal tissue planes and laxity, the ability of breasts to heal properly, and leaves scar tissue that dramatically affects the level of difficulty of the corrective surgery.Many patients come in to correct poor outcomes from their initial surgeries. The most common problems are due to implant malposition, bottoming out of the implant, poor scarring, and incorrect implant size.While the type of revision required will depend on the result of the previous surgery and the desired result of the patient, some revisions involve extensive pocket repair that may or may not need specialized external bras.If you are considering breast surgery revision, you should speak with a board certified plastic surgeon and have yourself properly assessed. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations. Also, you have to make sure that your surgeon understands your breast augmentation goals.
