Thoughts on suggested symmastia repair?

Dear nkmay,
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.

You have a tough problem.

Do you have a pre op photo?

While this can be much improved, my approach would be different

Your implants are sub glandular. Are you sure.? This is unusual over the muscle.

The repair may work in one try.

I would stop with a poor result, remove the implants and capsule, suture tissues back into normal position and allow healing.

Then if your anatomy proves correct replace the implants under the muscle in a new pocket.

Good luck.
