A Real Case of Revision Surgery After Breast Augmentation Due to Implant Rupture

Hello, this is Marble Plastic Surgery.

After undergoing breast augmentation with difficulty, there are cases where revision surgery is also needed later.

In this post, we would like to share a real case in which breast revision surgery was performed due to implant rupture.

Usually, people visit the clinic because of capsular contracture or capsular deformity,

but it can also be due to sudden pain, changes in shape, or, as shown in the image above, implant rupture.

Implant rupture is not easy to notice, so in many cases it is discovered late.

In particular, it can occur naturally over time even without trauma.

What is implant rupture?

A phenomenon in which the outer shell of the implant tears or bursts, causing the internal gel or silicone to leak out

Before surgery

If implant rupture is left untreated, the risk of various complications can increase,

and if suspicious symptoms such as breast deformity occur, prompt diagnosis and early treatment are necessary.

Since a ruptured implant is difficult to recover naturally, you should visit the clinic

and undergo revision surgery.

This is not a simple replacement; the ruptured implant must be removed, the surrounding capsule must be cleaned up,

and a new implant suited to the patient’s condition must be selected.

At Marble Plastic Surgery, we performed the surgery with consideration for the patient’s current condition and overall balance.

How to prevent implant rupture

First: We recommend receiving regular checkups.

(Especially if a long time has passed since implant insertion, periodic checks are essential.)

Second: If you experience sudden pain or a change in shape, it is best to visit the clinic.

Third: Please be careful to avoid excessive pressure or strong impact.

If implant rupture is detected early, there is enough time to take appropriate action.

Through an accurate diagnosis by breast surgery specialists,

it is most important to confirm your current condition.

At Marble Plastic Surgery,

Director Seo Il-beom, a breast surgery specialist with extensive clinical experience,

aims for satisfying results through careful consultation and a systematic surgical plan.
