Breast Implant Revision

There could be many reasons this happens such as issues during the procedure, issues related to the breast implant, or unforeseen augmentations to the breast tissue, which are usually caused by changes and stressors of pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Whether you are simply unhappy with the look of your breast augmentation, or there has been an implant deflation, capsular contracture, synmastia (where the implant joins in the middle of the chest), or implant rippling, you may be considering breast implant revision surgery. Patients from all over the country have traveled to have their breast implant revision done by Dr. Spence at Hillcrest Plastic Surgery. Before setting up an appointment, here’s everything you need to know about breast implant revision surgery.

Capsular Contracture

This condition can cause medical and aesthetic issues, and at Hillcrest Plastic Surgery, we use proven methodologies, advanced technology and years of experience to treat them. Learn more about how we do it and discover the results you can look forward to today.

Why Do I Need Breast Revision Surgery? Here’s Why! Fixing Capsular Contracture & Malposition

What Is Capsular Contracture?

A capsular contracture refers to the scar tissue that develops around a breast implant. The tissue forms a “capsule” around the implant that keeps it separate from the surrounding breast tissue. While this is usually a normal part of the healing process, sometimes the scar tissue constricts the implant too much. This causes pain, hardening of the area and distortion in breast appearance. Symptoms can range from mild to severe, but if the contracture affects you negatively in any way, Hillcrest Plastic Surgery wants to help.

How Does Capsulectomy Surgery Work?

The most common treatment for capsular contractures is the capsulectomy — a surgery that removes some of the scar tissue surrounding the implant, relieving the tension and allowing the breast to relax into its natural state.

At Hillcrest Plastic Surgery, this procedure is completed by the experienced Dr. Kenrick Spence and his team of medical professionals. Dr. Spence takes his time to get to know his patients and understand how their condition affects their daily lives. Then, he works with them to develop a personalized treatment plan that helps maximize the benefits of every patient's specific situation.

Our outpatient surgery center performs procedures like this every day using the latest technology, so you receive exceptional care without a lengthy hospital stay. Dr. Spence's team will be with you every step of the way to ease your concerns and put you on the path to a fast recovery.
