subject: Breast Surgery - Fixing A Previous Augmentation [print this page] While patients want to believe that every breast surgery turns out the right way, it is not always the case. There are a variety of reasons that things could go wrong the first time. For most patients, there are only two options. She can leave her body the way it is and live with the results or attempt another augmentation to correct things. There are benefits to both options and it can take months or even years for a woman to make a final decision.
Wrong Size
It is not always easy to explain exactly what size a woman wants to be after breast surgery. She can bring along pictures or maybe even a bra that she would like to fill out, but in the past, there was no way to actually see the augmentation on the body before the operation. Today's technology makes it possible for women to get a snapshot of what their bodies will look like, from different angles, after an augmentation. This way, the doctor and patient can customize the right size.
It is possible to fix the size of a previous augmentation. If there was not enough of an increase, the implants can be removed and replaced with larger ones. Patients can also add to their current implants. In the same way, if the size was too large, it is possible to replace the implants with smaller versions to try and reach the ideal look.
Wrong Shape
Some women undergo breast surgery to change the shape of this area of their bodies. They aren't happy with the way they look and they want to make improvements. These surgeries can also turn out poorly and a patient can end up unhappy with the results. In this case, it might be a good idea to seek out another surgeon and see if it is possible to fix the previous augmentation by reshaping the implants or making other adjustments until both the size and shape are correct.
Wrong Location
It is fairly obvious that a breast surgery is focused on one area of the body. So, how can it be that an augmentation can end up in the wrong location? This simply means that the breasts may not be up to the right level. Most women see any type of sagging in this area as unattractive. They want their new look to bring the breasts up to their original location.
If you have experienced a breast surgery and are unhappy with the results, don't hesitate to talk to another plastic surgeon about your options. It is important that you have all of the information before making the decision to try and correct the augmentation or leave your body in its current state.
