I hate them and have nerve pain daily! He ruined me. I still open up around areola about every 2 weeks! The MD license is suspended (no help from me) I saw another one and he said basically the plastic surgeon that performed bellesoma took off too much skin! So he can't put implant in for couple years and we are culturing next time wound opens around areola. I don't believe fat transfer would work because I'm so tight! Any ideas how to feel better about this? Wouldn't a implant stretch my skin?

Answer: Breast lift results Dear MarineMom2015, 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. Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Bellasomas have their issues too and you are living proof. Regardless, that is water under the bridge at this point and your surgeon suggesting time and patience is very reasonable. If you're just wanting more volume and fat grafting will suffice, that could be done sooner than later and cultures should not be as important as it would be with implants. Fat will help expand tissue over time but you will likely need more than one session.
