Changes in breast shape or volume
Implant rupture, capsular contracture, or implant malposition
Visible rippling or asymmetry
Unfavorable scars
Concerns about implant size or shape
A wish to remove implants entirely due to changes in personal goals or lifestyle
Dr. Rodriguez tailors each surgical plan to your anatomy, long-term goals, and the features you’d like to improve.

Every revision Dr. Rodriguez performs is unique, but a treatment plan may include one or more of the following techniques:
Breast Implant Exchange or Removal
Dr. Rodriguez can replace old implants with a different size, type, or profile—or remove implants entirely if you prefer an implant-free result. Implant exchange or removal is often paired with a or breast lift (mastopexy) to restore shape and support.
A small amount of fat grafting may enhance softness and contour.
Capsular Contracture Surgery
Concerns such as capsular contracture, implant shifting, or scar tissue hardening can be treated through:
Use of GalaFlex® to reduce the risk of capsular contracture recurrence
Dr. Rodriguez will conduct a thorough assessment before determining the best approach.
Breast Lift Revision
If sagging, stretched skin, or nipple position has changed, Dr. Rodriguez reshapes the breast tissue, tightens the skin envelope, and repositions the nipple-areola complex for a more youthful contour.
Implant Pocket Refinement
To improve breast symmetry and natural movement, she may:
Recenter or lower the implant pocket
Convert the implant plane (e.g., subglandular to submuscular or subfascial)
Add structural support to reduce future shifting
Your Procedure
Surgery is performed under general anesthesia at Dr. Rodriguez’s QUAD A–accredited surgical facility. She tailors incisions to your anatomy and existing scar patterns. Whenever possible, Dr. Rodriguez uses your previous incision sites to minimize new scarring.
She uses an advanced Keller Funnel® for “no-touch” implant insertion when performing breast implant revision, reducing the risk of capsular contracture. She also utilizes innovative tools such as DuraSorb® and GalaFLEX™ to reinforce internal support and help maintain beautiful results over time. Incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures, and a supportive bra is applied.

Days 4–7:
Many return to desk work and light activities. Continued walking is encouraged to promote circulation and support healing.
Weeks 2–3:
Reduced swelling; most patients can resume light exercise.
Weeks 4–6:
Breasts begin to settle; vigorous activity resumes once cleared by Dr. Rodriguez.
Months 3–6:
Continued refinement in shape and softness; scars continue to fade.
Dr. Rodriguez and her team provide detailed postoperative instructions, including scar management with Sylke® silicone sheets or Biocorneum® gel, to support optimal healing and results.
