I discovered that my surgeon reused implants to correct nipple displacement during the initial revision. I did not consent to reusing implants. 3 months post-op, an implant ruptured. He also removed most of my nipple, correcting the nipple placement that did not exist before the initial surgery. Given that I need to repair the ruptured implant, it is advisable to replace the other one, considering the compromise to implant integrity and potential health issues in the future.
