Women seek breast augmentation for a variety of personal
reasons. Women also seek breast implant
removal or replacement for number of reasons.
Some women note dissatisfaction
with breast changes that have occurred following pregnancy, menopause, general
aging or weight loss, and may desire a different breast size or shape. Other common reasons for revision may include
formation of capsular contracture, implant rupture, or desire for a different
type of implant material than what was originally placed.
You have many options including removing the implants
altogether, downsizing or upsizing your implants, or exchanging implants from
saline to silicone. These options may
also be performed with or without a concurrent breast lifting procedure.
A thorough breast examination and consultation with Board
Certified Plastic Surgeon, David S. Motoki, M.D. is the first step towards deciding what option
is best for you!
