Breast Revision - Sling Made from Cadaver Skin to Keep Breasts from Dropping?

I have been using these materials for more than 10 years and they have been very helpful in preventing women from getting on the "assembly line" of multiple failed revisions. Just doing the same operation repeatedly is doomed to failure, especially since each time there is more scarring and thinning of the tissue support for the implants. That is where these materials come in; think of them as a living internal bra. Alloderm is made from human skin from a skin bank, with all the cells removed leaving only the collagen matrix. Strattice is a similar material but comes from pig skin. In both cases the body incorporates it and it becomes living tissue for long term support.

This is a technique which has been popularized in part by the work of Dr. Scott Spear. There are studies to suggest that it becomes part of you . It can act like a support to reinforce the postion of the implant. Certainly, I would consider it as an option in a difficult case such as yours.
