Not satisfied with the size of the breasts
- The size of the breast is not appropriate for individual’s height and body; the breasts may look too big or too small based on the width of breasts.
- Want to have bigger or smaller size of implant/breasts.
Not satisfied with the shape of the breasts
- Breast implants have shifted in position or are in an inappropriate position.
- The width of both breasts is too wide or too narrow.
Not satisfied with the texture of the breasts
- Thin layer of tissue will normally cover the implants after implant surgery. If this layer abnormally thickens, this symptom is called capsular contracture; the shape of the breasts tightens, causes pain and makes the breast stiff. In this case, the implant is replaced or re-positioned or the capsule layer is removed.
- The texture of the breasts is not ideal as the breast tissue gets thinner. Middle aged women who have had breast implants in their early ages can experience this symptom.
Breast implants have deflated or silicone implant has leaked
- The saline bag can get wrinkled or shrunk as the saline solution leaks through micro holes of the bag. In case it is deflated, it can easily be noticeable as the volume will decrease severely. Silicone implant can also cause leaks through abrasions.

Surgical Procedures
The breast revision surgery usually involves repeating the cut in of the former incision but the site of incision can also be re-located. The surgical duration usually takes longer than the former surgery, as unexpected bleeding or firm scar tissue might be discovered. If the surgery is performed with replacing same/smaller implants, the surgery will remove the former one and replace it with a new one. Otherwise the surgery will broaden the space in order to insert the implant and place it properly.
Recovery Period
Wearing nursing bras is required and medication which prevents capsular contracture can be prescribed.
Recovery period varies, but recovery can be faster than the former one, as the space for the breast implant is usually secured from the former surgery and breast tissue is looser.
Post-operational Care
May strong muscle strain occur, though will be released naturally.
Will be instructed about food intake and fasting after the surgery by the type of anesthesia (no more than a day).
Smoking and drinking will irritate recovery. Especially smoking may cause possibilities of diverse side effects of surgery; please quit smoking for at least 2 weeks before and after the surgery.
After the surgery, any capsular contracture and inflammation may be caused, doctor will instruct on taking antibiotics, and implants elimination can be instructed by cases.
