Breast implant revision procedures largely depend on the length of time that the breast implant has been in place, what kind of implant, what position of the implant, and what current concerns a patient has with their breast implants. It's frequently helpful to see a plastic surgeon who has both an aesthetic arm of their practice as well as a reconstructive side because that surgeon can offer a full palette of options for providing the best possible results for each individual patient.
