Breast Revision – Utah – Breast implants can revive breast volume lost to time and gravity, create the bustline nature never granted, correct asymmetry, and even restore breasts lost to illness or injury. Surgical procedures can go awry, however, and though complications are rare for breast implant surgery, they can happen. When a previous breast augmentation creates a cosmetic problem or poses a health risk, it generally means removal or replacement of the implant. Some of the more common complications to breast enlargement are capsular contracture, nipple sensitivity (or the loss thereof), rippling, and rupture.

Complications are not the only reason for revision surgery, of course. Most implants are only designed to last 10 years, so revision surgery becomes necessary. Many women find, too, that after their surgery they simply wish they had gotten larger implants. For more information on Utah plastic surgery, see Dr. Joseph Berg.
