Breast Implant Revision Procedure
Breast revisions involve more detail and skill than a breast augmentation due to variance in cases, so surgeon selection is very important. Dr. Chung has performed over hundreds of breast revisions, specializes in breast procedures, and possesses the expertise to customize and perform a procedure to help you reach optimum results.
It is very important to gather as much paperwork and details as you can from your initial breast augmentation to share with your plastic surgeon for your breast revision consultation. The more information Dr. Chung has, the better she can customize a procedure and surgery plan for you. With many implant manufacturers offering warrantees on breast implants and financial assistance with revision surgery, your surgical costs may be reduced.
Breast Implant Revision Recovery
The recovery following a breast implant revision will be similar to your recovery following your breast augmentation. Swelling, bruising, itching, and discomfort are all common symptoms that will be treated with medication prescribed by Dr. Chung. You are encouraged to get up and move around right after your surgery and continue with gentle activity for a week. Full recovery varies by patient and procedure, but typically is two to six weeks. It is very important to follow all post surgery instructions, take medications, wear compression garments, and attend all follow-up visits.
Dr. Chung's Philosophy
Plastic surgery is a very personal decision and can get overwhelming at times to sort through options that are currently available. As a fellowship trained aesthetic plastic surgeon, I have the knowledge and experience to guide patients during this process. My goal is to listen, understand your objectives, and advise you in selecting a procedure that is right for you. As a woman surgeon, I am compassionate, warm, and honest. You will leave educated and confident that the end result will be beautiful and natural, not overdone.
I truly believe that to be a successful aesthetic plastic surgeon, one has to become the patient’s lifelong aesthetic provider. From non-invasive procedures to surgery, our journey begins together.
