Breast revision surgery corrects or changes the result of a previous breast augmentation, such as implant removal, replacement or fat grafting after implants.
What is breast revision surgery?
Breast revision surgery corrects or changes the result of a previous breast augmentation. Common reasons are capsular contracture, implant rupture, position or size change and personal preference. Options include implant replacement, implant removal with or without a lift, and fat grafting after implant removal. Revision is generally more complex than the original surgery.

概述
Breast revision surgery is a second or later operation on a breast that has already had surgery. It is most often done to fix implant problems after augmentation or reconstruction. It may include removing the implant (explantation), with or without cutting the scar capsule around it (capsulotomy) or removing part or all of it (partial, total or en bloc capsulectomy). It may also include exchanging the implant or adding a breast lift (mastopexy) or fat grafting. The US FDA states that breast implants are not lifetime devices and that the chance of complications needing more surgery rises over time. Confirmed BIA-ALCL is treated by removing the implant together with its capsule. Neither the FDA nor Korea's MFDS recommends routine preventive removal in people without symptoms. Readers should check the surgeon's credentials, the implant's make and surface type, imaging results and insurance coverage.
