Breast Implant Replacement New Jersey

Breast Implant Revision

Breast implant replacement in New Jersey is available at Asaadi Plastic Surgery to remove and replace past breast implants. Breast implant replacement surgery can correct cosmetic issues and medical concerns. While breast implants are a safe, effective breast enlargement technique, some patients may be unhappy with their results. Dr. Asaadi offers breast implant replacement to remove implants and reposition new breast implants to better fit your body’s physique.

What is breast implant replacement?

Breast implant replacement is a procedure where breast implants are removed and new breast implants are placed. Changing breast implant size is a common reason for breast implant replacement. Over time, some patients may gain or lose weight, which changes the proportions of the body. If a patient has lost a large amount of weight, past breast implants may appear overly large. In cases like this, Dr. Asaadi can remove these implants and place smaller breast implants.

Patients may also choose to replace breast implants if their previous surgeon didn’t have correct knowledge of their anatomy. Skin laxity, height, and body composition are all important details to consider when undergoing breast implant surgery. If a previous surgeon does not take these factors into account, results may look less natural. Dr. Asaadi always takes individual anatomy and a variety of lifestyle factors into account when performing breast implant replacement to ensure the best results possible.

If a patient is involved in an accident or trauma, a breast implant may leak or rupture. If this occurs, breast implant exchange is required to remove the unhealthy implants and replace them with new breast implants. Although less common, a patient may experience an infection or capsular contracture after receiving breast implants. Capsular contracture is a medical condition where tissue around the implant tightens and becomes too firm. Capsular contracture requires implants to be removed or exchanged.

In many cases, patients may choose to undergo breast implant replacement to exchange silicone implants for saline implants. Saline breast implants offer a safer and more effective breast implant procedure. Saline implants also provide long-lasting and more natural-looking breast implant results. Dr. Asaadi only uses saline breast implants. Throughout his years of practice, Dr. Asaadi has a 100% success rate of no capsular contracture or implant rupture.

What can I expect before breast implant replacement?

Prior to breast implant replacement surgery, Dr. Asaadi will perform an evaluation of the breasts to plan the details of your breast replacement surgery. During this consultation, any concerns, cosmetic issues, or medical side effects will be discussed to determine the best approach for treatment. Before the start of breast implant replacement surgery, anesthesia will be administered to ensure patient comfort. A small incision will be placed inconspicuously below each breast. This is where the breast implant will be removed. Following the removal of the older implants, new breast implants will be carefully placed, and the incisions will then be closed. Some patients may opt to simply undergo breast implant removal or breast explant surgery. In these cases, patients may choose to combine breast implant removal with breast lift surgery.

Breast implant removal is a surgical procedure where the breast implants are extracted. Breast implant removal surgery is often combined with breast lift surgery to ensure the breasts are symmetrical and natural-looking. Learn more about breast implant removal surgery by clicking the button below.

What can I expect after breast implant replacement surgery?

The recovery period and side effects from breast implant replacement surgery will vary patient to patient. The length of recovery will depend on your body’s own rate of healing. Swelling, discomfort, and bruising around the incisions are normal and will gradually decrease as you heal. Dr. Asaadi will provide post-operative instructions that must be followed to promote proper healing. Rest and refraining from excessive physical activity is required as you recuperate following surgery.

The importance of choosing a highly experienced breast implant replacement surgeon

It is important that you choose a skilled breast implant replacement surgeon who understands your individual anatomy. When the right plastic surgeon performs breast implant replacement surgery, there is usually no need for a revision. Dr. Asaadi stresses the importance of choosing a qualified, experienced, and board-certified plastic surgeon when considering breast implant replacement.
