I had two failed RAFT's with liposuction and I am done with breast augmentation, no implants for me. I would just like to fix the shape of my breast. I went to a board-certified plastic surgeon who recommended a Ryan procedure to cut a line higher in the tissue and get rid of some tissue below the nipple. I am just seeking a second opinion now. What would you recommend?

Answer: Revision surgery Dear Philosophical1179, 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.

Answer: Breast surgery I agree that a procedure to raise the inframammary fold would be of significant benefit although there would be a scar in voiced. Trying to reestablish the gold from infuse the breast is also a possiblility but I don’t think would work as well
