Breast Augmentation Revision

On occasion, surgery must be performed to revise the results of previously performed surgery on the breasts. Fortunately, this is not common.

Dr. Burden frequently evaluates patients who are sent from other physicians to evaluate their results following breast augmentation, breast reconstruction, and breast reduction. Each problem is specific to the primary procedure performed.

Dr. Burden has combined his silicone implant experience with his exceptional fiber-optic surgical experience to be able to revise some cases through the underarm approach to avoid a scar on the breast. He has performed many surgeries for patients from other areas of the country using this fiber-optic technique. Now most women can have their implants replaced using the underam (transaxillary) approach.

Dr. Burden has taught courses on revisional surgery using the endoscopic technique. Surgeons from around the country have come to watch Dr. Burden perform these procedures at the Destin Plastic Surgery facility. This technique is very sophisticated. Only those surgeons who have significant fiber-optic experience should perform these procedures.

Reasons For Revision Surgery

The 2 most common problems following breast augmentation and reconstruction with an implant are:

  • Capsular contracture
  • Undesirably palpable implant (“rippling”)

Dr. Burden performs submuscular breast augmentation near Pensacola, Mobile and Montgomery, which has 2 major advantages over subglandular placement of the implant:

  • Decreased rate of capsular contracture
  • More tissue to cover the implant to prevent the implant from being easily seen or felt
