Your Beautiful Breasts

Because of his extensive experience performing aesthetic breast surgery, Dr. Diaz can offer solutions for a variety of related complications and problems following breast augmentation from another surgeon. Revision surgery offers his Orlando area patients many different benefits, including:

  • Changing breast implant size or type
  • Replacing a ruptured or leaking implant
  • Addressing a complication that occurred following the initial surgery, such as capsular contracture
  • Improving the appearance of surgical scars

Dr. Diaz gives his patients understanding and unconditional support when they come to him for breast revision surgery. To ease any self-consciousness, he offers solutions and encouragement. Revision breast surgery is often more complicated than a primary procedure, and therefore requires an especially skilled surgeon.

Real Patient Testimonial:  Breast Revision

“I had developed a capsular contracture from my previous breast augmentation surgery done by another surgeon and my breasts no longer looked or felt natural. I heard about Dr. Diaz and his specialty of breast and body and correcting previous cosmetic surgery. He listened to me, explained what I needed, and immediately made me feel comfortable. I was sure I found the right surgeon and not only did he give me the natural looking breasts I wanted, but restored my confidence.”

Keep in mind that each patient is unique and your experience may vary.

What to Expect

Dr. Diaz performs breast revision surgery as an outpatient procedure while the patient is under general anesthesia. To provide the most natural-looking improvements, he tailors this procedure to each patient’s unique needs. Skilled and experienced in many advanced surgical techniques, in some cases, Dr. Diaz might use a reconstructive tissue matrix such as Strattice™ or GalaFlex® to provide internal support to the breast implants. The length of the surgery, surgical techniques, and incisions can vary greatly.

Your Recovery

After breast revision surgery, Dr. Diaz will encourage you to take the time to allow your body to heal properly. To optimize your results, be sure to closely follow his recommendations such as limiting arm movements and avoiding heavy lifting. He will let you know when you can resume your exercise routine and other more strenuous activities. Just as the breast revision procedure varies greatly between patients, so does recovery. In some cases, recovery from revision surgery can be easier than with the original procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is breast augmentation revision surgery common?

Because the reasons for revision surgery are so diverse—corrective and elective—these procedures are common. As a breast enhancement specialist, Dr. Diaz regularly performs revision breast procedures.

How long do breast implants last before they have to be replaced?

Breast implants do not have expiration dates; however, most last 10 to 15 years. If you are happy with your breast size and shape and have no concerns, leaving your implants in place is safe.

Can I exchange my saline breast implants for silicone implants?

Yes. Many women have elective implant exchange to change their implant fill material. They also use it as an opportunity to change the size of their implants. Dr. Diaz can also perform implant exchange with body contouring surgery such as a tummy tuck for a Mommy Makeover.

Is breast revision surgery more complicated than the initial augmentation?

Revision procedures are often more complex than the first time around because of weakened tissues and scarring.

Is breast revision surgery safe?

These procedures are safe when performed by an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in breast enhancement surgery. Dr. Diaz screens each patient carefully and operates in his private, accredited surgery center for optimal safety.
