When Is the Right Time for Breast Revision Surgery?

Until yesterday, it was humid all day and windy, so the weather felt a little chilly.

Today, though, the sky is clear again from the morning, with enough sunlight to see the sky, and it feels nice.

We are already nearing the end of May, and it really feels like time is passing very quickly.

Time may move quickly like this, but sometimes it feels as though it is moving slowly, and that can be frustrating.

Today, I want to talk for those who are watching time pass quickly and are considering the timing of breast revision surgery.

You may have thought it would only happen once in your life, but when an unexpected change leads you to think about revision surgery, it can feel a little unsettling and worrying.

However, for your future, it is best to look into the proper timing for breast revision surgery before proceeding.

There are many reasons why people start worrying again.

The most common are when the size looks smaller than expected, or when capsular contracture causes the implant to become hard.

Among them, capsular contracture refers to the formation of a thick, hard capsule around the implant instead of a thin membrane, and in severe cases, it can cause pain along with shape distortion.

However, even when these problems occur, some people delay or give up because they worry about things like, “What if it fails again?” or “What if the scar is left too large?”

That is why it is even more important to have a careful and thorough consultation with the medical staff, find out what you were not satisfied with, and then receive treatment from an experienced medical team.

The timing for breast revision surgery is best done about 6 months to 1 year after the first procedure.

The reason is that during this period, the implant needs time to settle properly, or you need to check whether inflammation or distortion occurs. The recovery period for the wound is also important.

Even after some recovery time has passed, if you still are not satisfied or think various problems have occurred, it is necessary to choose a medical team with long experience and know-how.

With diverse clinical experience and ongoing research, Director Choi Moon-seop at Grace Plastic Surgery has developed his own expertise. From the first consultation to design and surgery, he provides 1:1 customized care and does his best to help deliver more satisfying results.

Rather than simply making the breasts larger, we create the appropriate size and shape by considering each patient’s upper body and overall body proportions, so that the volume feels even more like your own than before.

With the belief that beauty comes from safety, all equipment is thoroughly sterilized and disinfected, and we have even established a surgery environment with triple barriers from the outside, always striving to create a safe environment.
