ETONNE PLASTIC SURGERY
Also called Implant Removal, Implant Exchange
Revision breast surgery is a surgery that corrects problems remaining after previous breast surgery, such as discomfort or pain caused by an implant, capsular contracture, asymmetry in breast shape, or an unsatisfying size. After examining how the previous surgery was done and the condition of the implant and capsule with ultrasound, the surgical method, such as replacing or removing the implant, is chosen to address each problem. At ETONNE in Gangnam, Seoul (Gangnam-daero, Nonhyeon Station), the surgery is performed by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Cho Jeongmok.

SYSTEM
Swelling and bruising may occur after surgery, and how long they take to subside varies from person to person. A scar remains at the incision site, and in rare cases bleeding, infection, inflammation, or left–right asymmetry may occur, which may require additional treatment. In revision surgery, what can be corrected depends on the capsule formed by the previous surgery and the condition of the remaining breast tissue and skin, and if an implant is inserted again, problems such as capsular contracture, rupture or displacement of the implant, or rippling, in which folds of the implant can be felt or seen through the skin, may occur again, so please tell us at your consultation when and how your previous surgery was done and what type of implant was used. If the implant is only removed, the breasts may lose volume and appear to sag. After surgery, hematoma or seroma (a collection of blood or fluid around the implant) may occur, or the sensation of the nipples and breast skin may change. Please tell us at your pre-surgery consultation about any medications you take, including blood thinners such as anticoagulants, as well as any medical conditions and whether you smoke. During recovery, please avoid alcohol and smoking and attend follow-up visits as scheduled. Please make your decision after you have been fully informed of the risks and of alternative options. Results and recovery vary from person to person.
Revision is considered when an implant causes discomfort or pain, capsular contracture has developed, the two breasts are asymmetric in shape or size, or you are not satisfied with the breast size. At ETONNE, we examine how the previous surgery was done and the condition of the implant with ultrasound to analyze the cause of the problem, then choose the surgical method that suits it, and we also perform surgery that only removes the implant without inserting a new one.
Revision breast surgery is done at least 6 months after the previous surgery. The exact timing depends on how the previous surgery was done, the current swelling, and how far the capsule and scars have settled. At ETONNE, we examine how your previous surgery was done and the current condition of your breasts, and decide the timing and method of surgery together with you.
Capsular contracture is a condition in which the capsule surrounding the implant thickens and contracts, making the breast firm or changing its shape. The correction method depends on the degree of contracture, the condition of the capsule, and where the implant was placed, so after an ultrasound examination we decide together how to treat the capsule and whether to change the implant.
Revision surgery also leaves a scar at the incision site. Where possible, the incision from the previous surgery is reused, but when the implant position is changed from the dual plane to beneath the fascia, or when the capsule is removed because of severe capsular contracture, a new incision may be made along the crease beneath the breast. How the scar settles varies with the condition left by the previous surgery and your skin condition, so this is explained after an examination. Scar laser care is provided according to your progress after surgery.
The surgery takes about 2 hours under general anesthesia, and you go home the same day without hospitalization. Stitches are either not removed or removed after 1 week, daily activities are possible from about 3 days after surgery, and about six follow-up visits are needed after surgery, with an ultrasound examination at every visit and Healite II, high-frequency, LDM ultrasound, and scar laser care depending on the stage of recovery. How long swelling and bruising take to subside varies from person to person.
