How Breast Revision Surgery Works

Breast revision surgery is a highly personalized procedure designed to correct, remove, or refine implants.

For some patients, this means safely removing implants otherwise known as an explant, to return to a natural look. For others, it involves replacing or repositioning existing implants to improve shape, symmetry, or proportion.

Our world-renowned specialists also treat complications like rupture or capsular contracture, using advanced techniques to ensure both safety and aesthetic precision.

Kate N.

I was referred to Dr. Colen because by breast implant needed to be replaced. I have had negative experiences with three prior plastic surgeons in the past with my initial breast cancer surgery and reconstruction. I explained my horror story with her and she immediately put me at ease and said she would take good care of me. I had my surgery and am very pleased and thankful to Dr. Colen and her staff. They all take that extra step to make sure I am doing well physically and emotionally. I actually look forward to my visits!

Sue B.

I just had another surgical procedure performed by Dr. Nasser as a follow up to revision surgery he performed last year on a breast reconstruction done by another surgeon the year prior. As always, Dr. Nasser explains everything thoroughly so you know what to expect and he always does his utmost to bring you the most pleasing results you wish to achieve. He is kind, compassionate understanding and I find his whole staff to be the same way. Thank you so much to this great surgical team.

My experience here with Dr. Peter Andrawes was very satisfying! The expertise he was able to provide was very comforting.

Dr Rose’s professionalism and expertise are unmatched. He took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the process and answered all of my questions with patience and clarity.

Beverley J.

Dr. Rabinowitz is an exceptional plastic surgeon and person. He goes above and beyond for his patients. His priority is his patients well being. I had lower lid blepharoplasty as well as my 22 year old implants removed. His staff is just as exceptional as he is. Dr. Rabinowitz could have easily done a more invasive & more expensive surgery on me, instead he was truly honest and only did what I actually needed. His honesty is priceless to me. Best experience A+++
