Implant keeps rotating - how much does revision work cost?

Question

Hi I had my breast augmentation last June . Everything went really well had 350 cc above the breast tissue. I have had in the last 2 months one side only flip x3 which I’ve manually flipped back .My surgeon said he will examine me and do free revision overseas he’s been very vague on the matter I’m worried . Not sure how much revision work would cost in the uk ?

Dear Good325300,

the price is entirely practice dependent. If it was planned to be staged than the cost may be included. If its a revision, typically surgeons only ask the patient to pay for the surgery center and anesthesia.

If you have a shaped implant, I suggest exchanging your implants for smooth and round implants. If your implant is placed over the muscle, I would suggest placing it behind the muscle.  Your pockets may also need to be tightened.
