Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgery performed in an effort to improve one’s own complex.

In the case of women, if the breasts sag after childbirth or if there is a lack of volume,

after much 고민 due to stress, they may choose to undergo breast augmentation.

Because the changes are so noticeable, it is a procedure with a high level of satisfaction.

However, even so, there are some cases where revision surgery is needed,

and because revision breast augmentation can also bring psychological anxiety, it should be researched and carried out more carefully.

If the cause is not corrected right away, it can lead to failure again, so it is best to analyze the cause step by step.

Cases in which breast surgery is performed are

  1. When capsular contracture is suspected

  2. When persistent pain occurs

  3. When implant rupture or displacement is suspected

  4. When dissatisfaction with size or shape is significant

As such, the reasons for revision surgery vary,

and the surgical method and treatment strategy differ depending on each cause.

Revision breast augmentation is usually considered after at least 6 months to 1 year has passed since the first surgery,

when the tissue has sufficiently healed.

Revision breast augmentation is usually considered after at least 6 months to 1 year has passed since the first surgery,

when the tissue has sufficiently healed.

In addition, depending on an individual’s recovery ability, skin condition, and degree of tissue damage,

the surgical method and materials used may differ,

so all revision surgeries should be planned individually.

Just like the first surgery, aftercare is also important for revision surgery.

  1. It is best to avoid using your arms and get adequate rest.

  2. You should be careful to minimize the risk of inflammation, such as by avoiding smoking and drinking.

  3. Lastly, it is good to check recovery status and scars through regular follow-up visits.

(Because tissue damage has accumulated, recovery may be somewhat slower.)

The important thing is not the cost, but avoiding an excessive timing.

To reduce unnecessary revision surgery, rather than worrying alone,

visiting the clinic and making a more thorough surgical plan with a specialist can also help ease psychological 부담.
