Will a Third Breast Implant Surgery Ruin my Breasts?

How far apart were your two breast surgeries? Did you have two surgeries within a 9 month time period?  If so, I would advise against a third surgery without waiting at least 6-12 months because you breasts may still have residual swelling from your two prior breast surgeries and therefore may continue to decrease in size as the swelling subsides. Also, make sure you are getting proper sizing advice prior to another surgery. Decreasing to a 100-150cc size breast implant may also decrease the base diameter of the implants to something that will not look appropriate on your chest. Lastly, I commonly replace breast implants with fat grafting if a patient desires to remove her breast implants all together which can greatly help to restore your natural pre-operative breast architecture .

One of the toughest things in breast implant surgery is determining how the patient will handle having the size implants she says she wants. Many women find they adjust well to having implants after some time, but it always takes some adjustment. Every re-operation increases the risk of scarring and infection (among other things), so consider it carefully. On the other hand the longer the implants are in the more the skin will remain stretched, making more work to achieve a good result if the implant size is changed.
