Why Is It Needed To Repeat Cosmetic Breast Surgeries?

When it comes to breast aesthetics surgeries, breast augmentation, breast lift and breast reduction surgeries will first come to mind. Breast lift surgeries can be performed at the same time with breast augmentation surgeries. Breast reduction surgeries include lifting of the breasts by content of procedure. As in many other fields of plastic surgery, secondary, revision surgeries may be needed and are performed after breast surgeries. Changes in the results in time due to aging, postoperative complications and changes in the wishes of the patient or unsatisfactory results can be expressed as the main reasons fort his.

A patient who has had a breast augmentation surgery can decide that she no longer wants to have implants. Sometimes the patient can think that their breasts are too large after a breast augmentation surgery. Or sometimes patients wish that they had gone with larger implants. It will be right to wait to make a decision until the healing process is completed. If the patient is not satisifed with implant size, with secondary surgery after their healing is completed, the implants can be replaced. If they do not want implants at all, they can be removed at any time after the surgery. When the implants are replaced with smaller ones or when they are removed, a need for a breast lift may arise due to stretching of the breast skin to adapt to the implants, with the fullness of the breast decreasing, they can get saggy. Also with or without implants, the breasts of a woman can start to sag and a need for a breast lift may arise in time.

Some complications after a breast augmentation surgery can also create the need for secondary surgeries. Some complications such as implant rupture, implant displacement, rippling in the breasts, capsular contracture can be mentioned. Following these, secondary interventions might be needed. Or without the presence of any complications, as the implants also have a lifespan, someone who has had a breast augmentation surgery in their 20s, may want to have their implants replaced or removed and along with a breast lift in their 40s. A patient with unsatisfactory results, can have the chance to create changes with a secondary and even a tertiary surgery.
