More infoRevision breast surgery is designed to correct aesthetic or functional concerns following a previous breast procedure. Whether you’re dealing with issues like implant rupture, capsular contracture, breast asymmetry, or dissatisfaction with implant size, revision breast surgery offers a customized solution tailored to your specific needs. Patients in Seattle, Mercer Island, and surrounding areas such as Bellevue can benefit from Dr. Fisher’s expertise in addressing these concerns and creating natural, long-lasting results.
If you’re experiencing discomfort, implant rupture, asymmetry, or are dissatisfied with the appearance of your breasts after a previous surgery, revision breast surgery may be necessary.
Most surgeons recommend waiting at least 6-12 months after your initial surgery to allow your body to heal fully before considering revision surgery.
Recovery after revision breast surgery depends on the complexity of the procedure. You may experience swelling, bruising, pain, or temporary changes in sensation for several weeks following the surgery. Most patients can resume daily activities within 1-2 weeks, but it’s important to avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting for about 6 weeks. Long-term follow-up appointments are important to monitor your progress and ensure optimal healing.
Breast revision surgery is a highly individualized surgery that is based on your anatomy, what surgeries you have had in the past, and what your concerns and goals are. Revisionary breast surgery is not a single operation, but rather a spectrum of surgeries and techniques used to give you the results you had always hoped for. This may include capsule removal or tightening, internal mesh support, reconstruction of native breast anatomy, and removal with or without replacement of breast implants. These techniques can be done with or without a breast lift, with the ultimate surgical plan being decided after a detailed consultation where Dr. Fisher will review your anatomy, your prior surgeries, evaluate any functional issues you may have, and get a full assessment of your concerns and goals. These surgeries are typically more complex than primary breast operations and are done under general anesthesia over a 3-4 hour period.
If you’re considering revision breast surgery in Seattle or Mercer Island, book an introductory consultation to evaluate your concerns and discuss the best surgical options for you. This consultation is designed to create a personalized plan for achieving your desired results and addressing any issues from your previous breast surgery.
