Breast Augmentation Correction Surgery in Winnipeg, MB

“My Breast Augmentation Was Performed By A Different Surgeon And I’m Not Happy With My Results, Can Dr. Avi Islur Help Me?”

Breast implant revision surgery is performed when an issue to your breast augmentation outcome from previous breast augmentation surgery has occurred. Some clients seek out an implant size or type change due to a desire to increase or decrease volume which can result from weight loss, weight gain or lifestyle changes over time. However, most issues that arise over time in some individuals include implant malposition, implant palpability, implant rupture or most commonly a complication of breast implant surgery called capsular contracture.

Dr. Avi Islur is well known across Canada for Breast Augmentation Correction Surgery because of his extensive training and experience with complex breast surgery cases. Dr. Avi Islur is at his core a reconstructive surgeon. With extensive experience in reconstructive microsurgery and complex breast cancer cases — he is able to take advanced reconstructive surgical techniques and adapt them to the most difficult issues in cosmetic breast surgery. Using options such as acellular dermal matrix internal bra (aka Alloderm or FlexHD), and fat grafting, Dr. Avi Islur is able to correct difficult issues such as recurrent capsular contracture, synmastia, bottoming out, and contour abnormalities.

Why is Breast Revision Surgery Required?

Every woman has certain goals for what her ideal breast following surgery should look like. Unfortunately, issues can occur overtime and sometimes issues can arise shortly after surgery as the surgery does not always go as planned. Many clients have come to Dr. Islur after an unsatisfactory outcome with another surgeon. Common complaints include:

  • Hardening to the breast implant from excess scarring/capsular contracture
  • Rippling, wrinkling that is visible
  • Sagging or asymmetry
  • Implants that have shifted out of place and are malpositioned

It is important to know, that if such issues arise following breast augmentation surgery that this is not from a “botched” operation. Breasts are a dynamic area of the human body and can be affected significantly by gravity, weight changes, and pregnancies. All of these affect the ability of the skin to stay tight – the presence of many stretch marks on the breast can be a sign of this loss of skin elasticity.  This loss can lead to implant position changes or sagging of the breast or the implant over time. Further, biological processes that lead to scar formation around the implant – Capsular Contracture – can occur over time in some patients.

Breast revision surgery can correct these undesirable changes, restoring your breast to its ideal shape, position, and aesthetic beauty. Breast revision surgery is highly individualized. A customized approach to address the complication or issue will be developed. Techniques that are often used by Dr. Islur include:

  • Fat grafting to replace the implants or hide visibility/palpability of the implants
  • Internal pocket tightening to correct implant position changes
  • Implant exchanges to implants of different size, shape, firmness
  • Internal pocket change to the breast implant – under muscle, over muscle or neo-pocket creation
  • Capsulectomies – total or subtotal
  • “Internal bra creation” with human acellular dermal matrix or mesh in patients with loss of skin elasticity or poor tissue quality
  • Underwire reconstruction of the breast inframammary crease (aka breast crease)
  • Explanation – removal of the implants
  • Breast lift

What is Capsular Contracture?

6 to 7% of women who get breast augmentation with implants may develop capsular contracture – scar tissue that develops around the implant, causing a change in its shape and pain to the patient. The mainstay of treatment offered by most surgeons is total or partial removal of the capsule scar tissue and replacement of the implant. Unfortunately, even with this technique the patient is at twice the risk of it recurring. Dr. Avi Islur offers the most up to date methods of treating capsular contracture by using acellular dermal matrix – at the time of total capsulectomy.

Dr. Avi Islur has several years of experience with this complex procedure for cosmetic breast surgery cases. He also teaches other plastic surgeons his unique approach and customized surgical techniques for optimal Breast Augmentation Correction Surgery results. Patients travel across Canada and the U.S to see Dr. Avi Islur to have this procedure performed at his cosmetic practice located in Winnipeg, MB.

If you are experiencing complications from your breast implant surgery such as capsular contracture, your breast implants are too close together, or the implants themselves have fallen down further than they should and you wish for a permanent solution to this problem, Dr. Avi Islur is happy to help you.

Your procedure will take place at Dr. Avi Islur’s state of the art cosmetic surgery centre, The First Glance Aesthetic Clinic & Surgery Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

What Is Recover like After Breast Revision?

Recovery depends on the extent of correction involved, but in general, it is comparable to recovery from breast augmentation/breast lift surgery. Surgical drains may be placed temporarily as the surgery involved to correct the issues generates some amount of inflammation and fluid that builds up should not sit around the implant.

After breast revision, you may be asked to wear a compression garment to help reduce your postoperative swelling and preserve your new breast shape. Most patients need to rest for 7-10 days and will need to avoid strenuous exercise for several weeks.

Full recovery can take up to 6-8 weeks but most patients feel they are perfectly fine after 1-2 weeks. It is important to note, everyone is unique and heals at their own pace.

How Much Does Breast Augmentation Correction Surgery Cost?

Every Breast Revision surgery is a customized procedure, so the cost can vary significantly. In general, the cost of Breast Revision surgery ranges from $4,500 to $28,000. The exact cost is determined by your existing anatomy, unique surgical requirements, and desired aesthetic results.  The surgical time required for revision surgery is often much longer than required for a primary breast augmentation surgery and therefore adds additional costs to the operation. The extent of your procedure will determine the exact cost. If you require additional surgical time or additional surgical procedures to achieve your desired aesthetic results, that will be reflected in your quote. Don’t let cost be the controlling factor when it comes to breast revision surgery. Many patients find out the hard way that you get what you pay for and end up having to pursue revision surgeries down the line to correct inferior work.

An exact quote will be provided after your consultation with Dr. Avi Islur. Quotes are valid for 6 months from the date they are printed. To get an exact quote for your eyelid surgery call Dr. Avi Islur’s Patient Coordinator at the First Glance Aesthetic Clinic & Surgery Centre (204) 885-1419. to reserve your consultation.

How can I Detect if My Implants Have Ruptured?

The newest generation of highly cohesive, gummy bear style, silicone breast implants generally do not change shape even if ruptured. Unlike saline implants which will deflate instantly, 4th and 5th generation silicone implants do so silently. Although the rate for implant shell rupture is rare, imaging studies such as a mammogram, ultrasound, or an MRI can be performed to detect the rupture. At present, The FDA has suggested that women undergoing breast augmentation surgery should have implant screening performed after 3-5 years of the initial surgery and then yearly thereafter to detect any implant rupture issues. Although this recommendation has not been adopted by Health Canada, The First Glance Clinic offers breast implant ultrasound to all of its patients according to FDA guidance.
