How is a Breast Revisionperformed?
After meeting with you and discussing your goals, Dr. Rodriguez will recommend a specific surgical plan. This may involve scar revision, capsule or breast pocket adjustment, moving the breast tissue and nipple, or changing the implant (if present). A breast revision surgery is typically done under general anesthesia and is done on an outpatient basis, meaning you go home the same day.

After a breast revision, you will have a wrap placed around your chest during surgery and will switch to a supportive, soft sports bra at your first follow-up appointment. You should not wear an underwire bra until cleared by Dr. Rodriguez. Most patients can return to work by 2 weeks after surgery and can start exercising again 6 weeks after surgery.

After surgery, the scar will soften and fade over the coming months. Scar therapy using a silicone product, such as silicone sheets or silicone gel, is recommended to optimize the appearance of the scars.
