Why Patients Choose Breast Revision Surgery

Women pursue breast revision surgery for many different reasons, often related to physical changes, implant concerns, or evolving aesthetic preferences. Revision surgery allows our surgeons to address these concerns while improving comfort, symmetry, and overall breast appearance. Common reasons patients consider breast revision include:

  • Capsular Contracture: Tightening of scar tissue around the implant that causes firmness or discomfort.
  • Implant Malposition: Shifting or asymmetry caused by implant movement over time.
  • Implant Rupture or Deflation: Damage to the implant shell that alters breast shape or size.
  • Cosmetic Adjustment: Desire to change implant size, shape, or material (e.g., switching from saline to silicone).
  • Body Changes: Natural ageing, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations that affect breast position or proportion.
  • Personal Preference: Choosing to remove implants entirely or refine the shape for a more natural appearance.

Whatever the reason, our goal is to restore comfort, balance, and confidence with results that look seamless and feel completely your own.

Had a breast reduction done by Dr Adrian Lee. Amazing surgeon - very kind, explains things well and paid close attention to detail. The staff in the office are very kind too. I am very impressed with how the healing has gone - back pain disappeared and with how thorough he is as a surgeon I believe that’s what helped the recovery process. Would recommend him and the office to anyone. :)

Dr. Oxley has done two procedures removing cancer for me. The first visit I had with him was in the surgery suite. He was professional, punctual and had just the right amount of humour for what was a stressful time for me. The follow up visit was on time and I was booked for a second surgery. The second surgery was again, punctual and professional with a touch of humour. I am in the process of booking a follow up to my latest surgery now. I would not hesitate to use Dr. Oxley again.

Dr. Imran Ratanshi performed my breast reduction surgery a month ago and I feel amazing. The recovery time was unbelievable and his staff has continually checked up on me to make sure I am still doing well. I would recommend him to anyone who is considering this surgery. He is honest and very helpful, provided all of the information I needed to make decision regarding my surgery. I feel like it's one of the best decisions I have ever made for my confidence. He did an incredible job, I trust him 100% and would not hesitate to put myself into his care again. Highly, highly recommend Dr. Ratanshi and his team!

My highest recommendation for an outstanding doctor and person: Dr. Rizwan Mian. Dr. Mian has surgically removed cancer from my skin a number of times in recent years - all basal-cell carcinoma. He has always been the ultimate professional but with a kind and gentle manner that calms any anxiety a patient might be feeling. And when my most recently removed skin tested positive for melanoma I was anxious indeed! This time it was a spot on my cheek that would require a large amount of tissue removal, a biopsy of the closest lymph node, and skin grafting, all done under general anesthesia. But I need not have worried. Dr. Mian was reassuring and amazingly skillful, the surgery was successful, the melanoma contained, and the complicated skin graft has healed so well that the incision on my face is already starting to disappear. Thank you, Dr. Mian!

Can’t recommend Dr Genoway enough! I was looking for a reconstructive surgeon for 5 years, had several consultations with other doctors. As soon as I met Dr Genoway, I knew I found my doctor. She is knowledgeable, experienced, kind and caring. Dr Genoway listened to all of my concerns, gave me honest medical opinion, including to comeback in a few years as I am too young for a particular procedures. I felt comfortable and not rushed or pressured. Most importantly I felt safe and in good hands. Ended up having my postpartum reconstruction and 2 other procedures (long time dream) in one go. Recovery was fast considering the extent of the procedures. I didn’t need the prescribed pain medication at all. She just has this “light hand”. Most importantly, the results are better than expected! Natural looking, better version of me, but still me. I feel more confident and much happier in my own skin.

I was a novice to surgery and the staff here were amazing - very friendly and helpful. Dr. Lee was very calm and knowledgeable and answered my questions. Breast reduction surgery was scary to me but I have zero regrets. Barely any pain or discomfort after surgery and any back pain I had before is now gone. I walk straighter and clothes fit better. My self esteem has improved. Would recommend this office and the actual surgery to anyone considering it. It’s a game changer.

I am a breast cancer survivor. After my reconstruction surgery failed I was referred to Dr Imran Ratanshi. His kind demeanor and great sense of humor put me at ease immediately. I was in a very dark place emotionally due to the appearance of my body. Dr. Ratanshi preformed a deep inferior epigastric perforator surgery and it was a complete success. I believe Dr Ratanshi saved my life! A very skilled surgeon and a wonderful man.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be an ideal candidate for breast revision surgery if you:

  • Experience discomfort or aesthetic concerns following a previous augmentation
  • Have implants that are leaking, hard, or misshapen
  • Wish to change the size, type, or placement of your implants
  • Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations
  • Are a non-smoker or willing to stop smoking before and after surgery

Our surgeons will conduct a thorough consultation and examination to determine the safest, most effective surgical plan for your needs.

  • Assess breast tissue, skin elasticity, and scar tissue
  • Discuss your desired aesthetic goals
  • Recommend whether replacement, removal, or reshaping is appropriate
  • Explain your options for implant type, size, and positioning

We believe in complete transparency: explaining what’s possible, what to expect, and how we can achieve lasting, natural-looking results tailored to your anatomy.

The Breast Revision Procedure

Breast revision surgery is performed under general anaesthesia in a fully accredited surgical facility. Each procedure is customized, but may include one or more of the following steps:

  • Implant Removal or Replacement: Damaged or unwanted implants are safely removed, and new implants may be inserted using the original incision site when possible.
  • Capsule Correction: If capsular contracture has formed, the scar tissue is partially or completely removed to restore a soft, natural feel.
  • Implant Repositioning: Adjusting the implant pocket to improve placement, shape, or symmetry.
  • Lift or Contour Refinement: A breast lift (mastopexy) may be added to tighten and reshape the breast for an enhanced final result.

Surgery typically takes two to three hours, depending on complexity. Your surgeon will always prioritize minimizing scarring, preserving healthy tissue, and creating balanced, natural contours.

Recovery and Healing

Most patients return home the same day and can resume light activity within one to two weeks. Your recovery experience will depend on the extent of your surgery, but general expectations include:

  • Swelling and tenderness that gradually subside over several weeks
  • Return to desk work within 7–10 days
  • Avoiding strenuous activity or heavy lifting for 4–6 weeks
  • Visible improvement immediately, with final results developing over 3–6 months

Our team provides comprehensive post-operative care, including personalized recovery instructions and follow-up visits to ensure your healing stays on track.

Long-Term Results

Breast revision surgery can significantly improve both the appearance and comfort of the breasts. Many patients experience softer, more natural-feeling breasts along with improved symmetry and proportion. Patients often notice:

  • Softer, more natural breast contour
  • Improved symmetry and balance
  • Relief from tightness or discomfort caused by scar tissue
  • Renewed confidence in their shape and silhouette

With stable weight and healthy lifestyle habits, the results of breast revision surgery can last for many years.

Risks and Considerations

While breast revision surgery is highly effective, it’s important to understand that all surgical procedures carry some risk. Potential complications include:

  • Infection or delayed wound healing
  • Implant-related issues, such as rupture or capsular contracture recurrence
  • Changes in nipple sensitivity
  • Minor asymmetry or visible scarring

Our surgeons use advanced techniques and sterile protocols to minimize risks and ensure safe, predictable results.

Frequently Asked Questions Breast Revision

How Soon Can I Have Revision Surgery After My First Augmentation?

Most surgeons recommend waiting at least six months to one year after your initial breast augmentation to allow full healing and tissue stabilization before considering revision surgery.

Will My Scars Be Larger After Revision?

In many cases, surgeons can use the same incision lines from your original surgery, which helps minimize additional scarring.

Can I Switch from Saline to Silicone Implants?

Yes. Many patients choose to replace older saline implants with modern cohesive silicone gel implants to achieve a softer and more natural feel.

What If I Want My Implants Removed Completely?

Breast implant removal can be performed with or without a breast lift, depending on your goals and natural tissue characteristics. Your surgeon will help determine the best approach for maintaining a balanced, natural shape.

How Long Do Revision Results Last?

With proper care and regular follow-up appointments, revision results can last for many years. Routine monitoring helps ensure the continued health and integrity of your implants.
