Even if you love your results from a previous breast surgery, it is common for women to require a revision after 10 to 20 years. If you need a breast revision surgery in Mansfield, or if you are unhappy with your previous results, meet with our team to discuss your options. Dr. Matthew H. Steele, MD, a board-certified plastic surgeon, can help you by exchanging your implants and lifting your breasts to achieve your goal appearance.
Common reasons for undergoing revisionary breast surgery include implant malposition, capsular contracture, dissatisfaction with size or shape, and implant rupture. Dr. Steele will address your concerns and create a customized surgical plan to meet your goals.
Appropriate candidates for breast revision surgery in Mansfield have aesthetic concerns, experience discomfort, or notice changes to their breast implants such as distortion or malposition. You may even wish to increase or reduce the size of the implants you previously received.
During your consultation, Dr. Steele will assess your medical history, current health condition, and your goals, to determine if the revision surgery is suitable for you. We can perform a revision even if a different plastic surgeon performed the original.
A breast corrective procedure for Mansfield patients is performed in our outpatient accredited surgery center. This surgery may involve various procedures depending on your concerns and stated goals.
If you are dissatisfied with your current implants,, Dr. Steele might advise replacing or removing them altogether.
For patients whose scar tissue has hardened around their implants, Dr. Steele will surgically remove the capsule and treat any pain or changes in appearance associated with the contracture.
If you are unhappy with the size or shape of your breasts, Dr. Steele will recommend a larger or smaller implant depending on your goals. In many cases, a mastopexy may be needed for optimal shape.
Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are common in the first week or so, and Dr. Steele will prescribe pain medication to control these symptoms. In some cases a drain tube may be placed to minimize the risk of fluid accumulation (seroma) around the implant. You will be given specific instructions on wearing a surgical bra and limiting strenuous activity and heavy lifting. Although incisions result in scars, these will improve with time and proper scar care. The best way to maintain your results is to follow a healthy lifestyle and Dr. Steele’s recommendations.
Dr. Matthew H. Steele is committed to helping Mansfield breast revision patients to achieve desired results through compassionate care. Every procedure is catered to a patient’s unique needs for aesthetic enhancement.
