Breast Revision Las Vegas

Why Have Breast Revision Surgery?

Most common reasons for undergoing our breast revision in Las Vegas include:

• Change in breast volume or shape – Changes can occur in the breast due to the aging process, pregnancy, nursing or weight fluctuation.
• Deflation of a saline implant – When a saline implant ruptures, the saltwater is absorbed into the body and the implant deflates.
• Leakage of a silicone implant – You may need an MRI to detect whether a silicone implant has ruptured or is leaking.
• Breast implant exchange – In this case, the client desires to change the implant size, or change the implant material (silicone, saline).
• Capsular contracture – This is a common breast implant complication where the collagen and tissue surrounding the implants begins to harden and contract.
• Implant coverage malfunction – When the breast tissue is too thin, it may not properly cover the breast implant.
• Allergic reaction – In very rare cases, a woman’s body may reject the breast implant and form an infection.
• Malposition – This occurs when an implant shifts outwards, inwards, downwards or upwards, creating an awkward, undesirable appearance.
• Asymmetry – Here the breasts are not symmetrical to one another.
• Symmastia – This is a type of malpositioning of implants where they drift inwards creating a “uniboob.”
• Bottoming out – This is a complication that occurs when the nipples drift too high on the breasts and the breast crease sinks too low.
• Double bubble – When the breasts drop down below the breast crease, it is called double bubble.
• Implant removal – In this case, Dr. Parker removes the implants without replacing them.
