Description:

Procedure: Corrective/revision implant surgery

Breast Implants: saline

Right: 300 filled to 310 cc, moderate plus profile

Left: 300 filled to 300 cc, moderate plus profile

This woman had previous augmentation with silicone gel implants placed above the muscle. She subsequently developed severe hardening of the implants with distortion of her shape following implant rupture. Corrective procedures were needed to improve her shape. Converting her implants to submuscular (under the muscle) reduces her chance of a recurrent capsular contracture. A breast lift was also needed to correct the obvious sagging.
