What to Expect on the Day of Breast Revision Surgery

Breast revision surgery at our Evansville practice may be performed under general or local anesthesia, in the office (“awake” surgery), depending on the complexity of the procedure. Dr. Conkright will determine the most appropriate approach for your specific case.

During surgery, previous incisions are often used when possible to minimize additional scarring. The procedure may involve removing or replacing implants, adjusting positioning, releasing scar tissue, or incorporating additional techniques such as lifting or fat grafting.

Each step is performed with careful attention to detail to ensure smooth contours, improved symmetry, and long-lasting results. After surgery, you will be monitored and provided with detailed post-operative instructions.

Combining My Breast Revision with Other Procedures

Breast revision is often combined with additional procedures to enhance results and address multiple concerns at once. Since revision surgery is highly individualized, combining treatments allows for a more complete and balanced outcome.

A breast lift is commonly combined with revision surgery, particularly when sagging or loss of position is a concern. This procedure repositions the breasts and nipples to a more youthful location while removing excess skin. When paired with revision surgery, it helps improve overall shape, support, and contour, especially in cases where implants alone cannot achieve the desired result.

Breast Revision Recovery

Recovery from breast revision varies depending on the complexity of the procedure, but is generally similar to or slightly more involved than initial breast surgery.

Patients can expect swelling, bruising, and mild to moderate discomfort during the initial recovery period. Support garments are often worn to help reduce swelling and maintain proper positioning.

Most patients return to light activities within 1 to 2 weeks, though strenuous activity should be avoided for several weeks. Final results will continue to improve over time as swelling subsides and tissues settle.

Combining My Breast Revision with Other Procedures

Breast revision is often combined with additional procedures to enhance results and address multiple concerns at once. Since revision surgery is highly individualized, combining treatments allows for a more complete and balanced outcome.

Breast Lift

A breast lift is commonly combined with revision surgery, particularly when sagging or loss of position is a concern. This procedure repositions the breasts and nipples to a more youthful location while removing excess skin. When paired with revision surgery, it helps improve overall shape, support, and contour, especially in cases where implants alone cannot achieve the desired result.

Breast Augmentation with Fat Grafting

Fat grafting can be used alongside breast revision to refine results and improve contour. By transferring your own fat to the breasts, this technique can help soften edges, improve symmetry, and enhance fullness in a natural way. It is especially useful for patients seeking subtle adjustments without relying solely on implants.
