Breast revision surgery refers to a group of surgical procedure performed to address or correct issues related to a previous breast surgery, such as breast augmentation, reduction, lift, or reconstruction.
Motivations for breast revision surgery vary and can include the need to update or improve the results of previous breast surgeries, address complications that have resulted from previous surgeries, or following changes in personal preferences post – surgery.
There are several reasons why a woman may opt for breast revision surgery, and these vary according to which breast surgery was undergone. Some common themes include:
Sometimes these issues aren’t obvious immediately after the initial breast surgery. It takes a while for post-operative swelling to subside and the breasts to settle into their new shape. Only then may any issues become apparent.
The type of breast revision surgery that will be suitable for you will depend upon the issues that you are experiencing and the result that you are hoping for.
Our surgeons can offer guidance so that you can find the best solution but common Breast revision surgery can include:
Breast revision surgery is sometimes necessary as physical attributes, including shape, size, and texture, of a woman's breasts can exert a substantial influence on an individual's physical and emotional well-being.
This might manifest in diminished self-confidence, heightened anxiety in social situations (including the intimate), or the development of various other mental health challenges. There may also be a level of physical discomfort or pain.
This explains the prominence of breast surgery as the most popular form of cosmetic surgery in the United Kingdom, as well as reflects the potential for such surgeries to address both physical and psychological aspects of well-being.
Equally, this underscores the importance of why any ongoing issues following breast surgery do need to be addressed.
Breast Augmentation Revision surgery typically targets some common issues such as:
As well as surgery that seeks to enlarge the breasts, many women look for their breasts to be reduced in size. This could be because of discomfort, back pain and other medical or physiological reasons, or being self-conscious. Following the reduction, there may be issues that need to be revisited.
It could be that:
Like all forms of cosmetic surgery, breast surgery comes with its own risks and potential complications.
It is important that you are aware of these before surgery, however rare they may be. Some key breast surgery risks that may require further attention post operatively include infection, bleeding, swelling, scarring, temporary or permanent changes in sensation, implant-related issues such as capsular contracture, asymmetry and poor wound healing.
Whilst it is impossible to minimise and eliminate all risk, there are some things you can do to manage breast surgery risks.
The most important thing is to choose a qualified surgeon that you trust. A surgeon with the right expertise and credentials will significantly reduce the chances of breast revision surgery further down the line due to either incompetence or lack of care.
Some breast revisions are not due to the surgeon’s care or capability, so in general we advise you to follow all pre and post operative instructions closely, arrive on the day of surgery at a stable weight and following a healthy lifestyle, and make sure you monitor closely your recovery for complications, with a view to communicating these immediately to your aftercare team should you observe any. The sooner complications are picked up the quicker and easier they are to treat.
Finally, it is vital to stop smoking in the weeks running up to surgery as this can cause healing complications postoperatively.
Breast revision recovery times vary depending on the nature of the surgery performed and the condition that is being corrected. There is no general rule that can be applied
It is possible that breast revision recovery times might be slightly longer, however, as often they are longer, more complex procedures.
Breast revision scars will start to fade at six months and should be barely visible by 12 months.
When scars start to heal, they appear red and raised but will change to pink and then white as the healing process continues. Once the scar has healed, it will no longer be raised but instead sit flat to the skin.
It is important that you always follow the aftercare advice issued by your surgeon to help your recovery, and there are treatments and/or steps you can take yourself to encourage scar healing.
If you want to encourage natural scar healing, therefore avoiding the need for scar revision, then there are a number of things that you can do at home.
