Breast Implant Revision in Fairfield County, Connecticut

Common Issues

The most frequent issues we address with breast implant revision surgery involve size, shape, and capsular contracture. We take careful measurements of your dimensions and body frame, keeping your personal goals always in mind, to determine the optimal breast size and shape for you. Correcting unsatisfactory size and shape can involve placing a different size of implant or altering the placement of a breast implant to sub-glandular (below the breast tissue) or sub-muscular (below the pectoral muscle).

Capsular contracture is a condition in which the scar tissue that naturally develops around a breast implant becomes too tightly woven, squeezing the breast implant and distorting the breast shape. In some cases, the condition can be painful or uncomfortable. The exact causes of capsular contracture are unknown, but fortunately, the condition can be corrected. Capsular contracture is treated by loosening or removing the constrictive scar tissue. Once the scar tissue has been treated, the implant is usually replaced.
