Revision Breast Surgery Case 143

This is a female in her mid-thirties from the greater Phoenix, Arizona area who presented to my Scottsdale, Arizona area medical practice with interest in corrective breast surgery and repair of her abdominal area after childbirth. 

 With regards to her breasts, this patient had undergone prior breast augmentation by another surgeon many years ago and had developed significant malposition of the implants causing a "double bubble" appearance.  I felt that to regain a natural appearance, I would need to exchange her saline implants for silicone implants, tighten the internal breast pockets to reposition the implants, and perform a circumareolar (around the areola) breast tightening to improve shape and symmetry.

From the standpoint of her abdomen, I felt she would be an excellent candidate for a full abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) with tightening of the internal muscles and liposuction of the love handles.

In the operating room, I exchanged this patient's overfilled saline implants (390cc overfilled to 450cc) for new Mentor cohesive silicone gel 400cc moderate plus profile implants.  I also performed extensive internal pocket tightening as well as external tightening with a circumareolar mastopexy.  I performed an abdominoplasty with liposuction of the flanks at the same time.

The patient recovered very well after surgery, and was extremely happy with her improved, natural breast and body appearance.

Surgeon: Dr. Cohen
