I had a full lift w/ 550cc OTM Oct 2021. My breast are boxy, saggy and uneven. I’m so unhappy because although I wanted large breast, I didn’t want these. I have horrible scars which I believe is due to the manner in which I was sutured and I’m just not happy. Can I get a revision at the 3 month mark as this month will make 3 months?
Answer: Can I get a revision at 3 months I am sorry to hear you are unhappy with your outcome. 3 months is the absolute earliest I would do a revision. I believe it is better to wait 6 months for everything to totally soften before trying again.

Answer: Breasts No, you need to wait until you have healed more around 6 months before considering any revision. You still have some swelling at this time which will subside. You may find your shape improves once you have healed.

Answer: Explant with Bellesoma Method I recommend you wait until the 6 month mark before undergoing any revision. The technique I recommend is explantation and lift. The implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained, if not injured during your previous surgery. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Revision surgery Dear Practical7290, 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.
