Procedure Details

Patient with 20 year old 200 cc silicone implants desired a larger, fuller breast size and treatment of breast discomfort associated with her implants. Capsulectomy was performed and her original 200cc Dow Corning silicone implants were exchanged for Mentor 450cc Smooth Round Moderate Plus silicone implants.

This 49 year old patient was unhappy with the small size of her breasts after undergoing augmentation 20 years before. More

Oblique View

The capsules were removed and her implants were replaced with larger implants to create the look and size she wanted. More

Side View

She was happy to go from a 36C to a 36D cup along with improvement in her breast shape. More

Breast Augmentation Revision

Revision of prior breast augmentation is a frequently performed procedure. The procedures performed vary depending on the problem(s) being corrected. This procedure was performed through her prior inframammary incision so additional scars were not necessary. Her mild mammary ptosis was also improved by the increase in implant size.
