Flawless Breast Revisions: Meet Dr. Galanis

How Did This Happen? Understanding The Need For Breast Implant Revision

Breast implant revision may be recommended for a variety of reasons, including medical concerns, aesthetic refinements, or lifestyle changes. Patients who seek revision surgery often fall into one or more of the following categories:

Capsular Contracture – Scar tissue around the implant has hardened, causing discomfort or distortion.
Implant Malposition – Implants have shifted too low (bottoming out) or too far to the sides (lateral displacement).
Symmastia ("Uniboob") – Implants have merged across the midline, creating an unnatural look.
Ruptured or Deflated Implant – Saline implants can deflate, while silicone implants may rupture.
Desire for Size Change – Some patients wish to increase or decrease their implant size to better match their lifestyle and body proportions.
Aging & Skin Changes – Over time, the breasts may sag or lose volume, requiring a lift or implant adjustment.
Desire for Implant Removal – Some patients opt to remove their implants entirely for personal or health reasons.

For patients who have previously undergone a breast lift or breast reduction, revision surgery can also address:

Scar concerns or dissatisfaction with incision placement
Persistent sagging or asymmetry
Desire for additional size reduction or volume adjustment

Your Customized Breast Revision Plan

At Galanis Plastic Surgery, every breast implant revision procedure is customized to meet your unique needs. Dr. Galanis will get to know you and understand where you’re coming and what you’re hoping revision will accomplish. After carefully examining your existing implants, he will develop a surgical approach entirely tailored to your goals. Soon, your disappointment will be just a memory, and you can reveal your best self.

What to Expect: The Breast Revision Procedure

Depending on your concerns, every surgery will be a bit different, but most procedures will include the following:

Anesthesia: Breast implant revision is performed under IV sedation or general anesthesia.
Incisions: In most cases, Dr. Galanis is able to use existing incision lines to minimize additional scarring.
Capsular Work: If necessary, the capsule (scar tissue around the implant) will be removed or modified.
Implant Adjustment or Replacement: New implants may be placed above or below the muscle, depending on your needs.
Breast Tissue Contouring: If required, a breast lift or fat grafting can be incorporated for additional shaping.
Depending on the complexity of the case, surgery typically takes 2–4 hours.

Following breast implant revision surgery, patients can expect a smoother, more natural breast appearance with improved comfort. Most patients can return home from this outpatient procedure on the same day and get back to work in 1-2 weeks. You’ll likely wear a compression bra for the first 2 weeks to support healing. Then, you’ll transition to a sports bra after 2 weeks, avoiding underwire bras for at least 4 weeks. Activity Guidelines:

No heavy lifting (>10 lbs) for 2 weeks
No strenuous activity for 6 weeks
Walking is encouraged immediately to aid circulation

Initial swelling subsides over 4–8 weeks, with final results visible in 3–6 months. Dr. Galanis and his highly-trained team will guide you through your personalized post-op recovery plan, ensuring a smooth and successful healing process.
