Correction of Prior Mammoplasty

A patient that has gone through an Augmentation Mammoplasty procedure and did not attain the results she expected will ponder a lot before once again going back to a Plastic Surgeon for a consultation. This is why these patients must be carefully analyzed and studied in order to finally attain those desired results.

Augmentation Mammoplasty can have these types of undesired results:
Improper placement of the implants: The most common is when they are place above their ideal location.Enlargement of the nipple-areolar diameter complex: This is usually due to a bad technique during surgery.

Hypertrofic or enlarged scar: Normaly due to tension on the sutures. The implants were too large or there was too much skin removed.

Capsular Contracture (of the implant): The most common of the complications and there is still no definitive reason for its occurrence. It is thought that it is produced by multiple factors:

a.By a large hematoma in the immediate post-opt.
b.By a Seroma post-opt immediately or not immediately.
c.By creating a very large pocket for a small implant.
d.By creating a very small pocket for a very large implant.
e.By infection.
f.By patients that have the implants for more than 10 years.
Another complication is due to the breasts that fall after a pregnancy and breastfeeding, leaving the implants above and the breasts below, especially when the implant was places underneath the muscle.

Another sequel is the visualization or palpation of the implant on very thin patients. This usually occurs when the implant is placed above the muscle.

As you can see there are many types of complications, sequels or errors and each one has to be attended in an individual manner, starting with the correct diagnosis.
