Revisional Breast Surgery Brisbane
We are committed to helping women who have suffered complications as a result of breast augmentation mammoplasty. With revisional breast surgery, our Brisbane team – led by specialist plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Philip Richardson – can remove breast implants that have ruptured or correct the results of a previous surgery so that the patient’s aesthetic goals are satisfied. Unfortunately, some women experience asymmetry or misshapen breasts after breast augmentation mammoplasty; with breast implant revision surgery, these complications can be rectified. If you have previously undergone breast augmentation mammoplasty and believe that you require breast revision surgery, feel free to contact Brisbane Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery. We take great pride in the services we offer, and take seriously the health and happiness of our patients.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks and before proceeding, you should seek an opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner such as Dr Richardson.
We perform multiple revisional breast surgery procedures for our patients, including:
Breast Implant Removal – If you would like to remove your breast implants for personal or medical reasons, Dr. Richardson can do so safely and efficiently. To minimise scarring, our team will often utilise the existing incision location, and can extract existing scar tissue to minimise the evidence of surgery
Breast Implant Replacement – There are a number of reasons why a woman might replace her breast implants: because she prefers a different type of breast implant, is seeking a different size or shape of breast implant, or because her implants are deteriorating. Whatever your reasons, if you are considering breast implant replacement, Dr. Richardson and our Brisbane team can explain the details of revisional breast surgery in detail and discuss your goals with you in person so that your needs are met.
We are sensitive to the fact that patients who are undergoing revisional breast surgery are likely doing so either because they are dissatisfied with their previous procedure or because they have suffered complications as a result of a previous procedure; you can rest assured that Dr. Richardson and our team will take every precaution to ensure your health and satisfaction. We offer a lifetime follow-up guarantee with zero out-of-pocket expenses to ensure we are providing ongoing exceptional care to our patients.
We advise all of our patients however that all surgeries carry some degree of risk. Being mindful of these risks and taking them into consideration prior to making a decision on treatment can help a patient develop realistic expectations. Risks include scarring, implant rupture, excessive bleeding, capsular contracture, asymmetry, and implant shifting.
