Yes, a #revision can be done for one breast rather than both. In fact, this is not uncommon for implant failure , size or position problems. You will need to meet with your board-certified Plastic Surgeon to better determine your specific #breast #implant #revision needs.
Thank you for your question. Without at least a description of what is going on, it can be hard to say. But, there is nothing that assures you have to have surgery on the other breast if there are no problems. If you have a completely normal breast that you are happy with, then there is no reason to mess that up.Hope this helps!
Whether or not one breast can be revised without the other depends a lot on what the problem is and other factors. More information is needed in order to offer a better answer.
Depending upon when the implants were first placed it may be possible to have only one implant redone. Consult with plastic surgeon thst specializes in revision in your area
Thank you for your question. Replacing one implant would depend upon what the problem is. In some cases it is okay to only replace one implant. Not knowing what the problem is makes it difficult to answer your question. It would be best for you to have an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and get an exam in order to answer your question.Best of luck,Dr. Hisham Seify
Although good advice would require much more information, it is generally possible to undergo revision breast surgery on one side only. This is of course assuming that you are pleased with one side and the other side can be adjusted to match. My best suggestion: select your plastic surgeon carefully. Make sure that he/she has significant experience achieving the types of outcomes you would be pleased with. Then, communicate your goals carefully as well. Best wishes.
If one breast is doing well, and you are happy, leave it alone. If, however, you have old silicone gel implants in both breasts, the implants need to be removed from both. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing all your concerns and options.
Thank you for the question. In the long-term patients who undergo breast augmentation surgery should be able to return to all activities with full strength. At this point, you should be clear to proceed with all forms of work out. Of course, your plastic surgeon will always be your best re...
Before exchanging to a larger implant, do your homework. Your tissues are already stretched with the 650cc implants that you have, going even larger could cause permanent damage to your tissues. Short term satisfaction may not be worth the long term effects to your breasts.
While each patient's postoperative instructions may be different due to technique of the surgery and/or thoughts of the surgeon, I can only tell you what I tell my patients. I've been using the rapid recovery technique for 20 years or so and we tell our patients to lift their arms over their h...
Thank you for the question and picture. You will find that online consultants will not be able to provide you with specific advice in regards to selection of specific breast implant size/profile. Having said that, it is generally necessary to utilize high or ultra high-profile silicone gel...
You have a very valid question. Many patients ask about the value of changing the size of their implants. Usually the change in size is not worth it unless it is more than 20% (up or down). In other words, you will not be able to really see a difference and therefore not worth the money. Your...
Far more important than the technique is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let them explain why one technique may be better than another. See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for a ...
