If you’ve had a breast enlargement procedure recently, you might be the kind of person who likes to stay up-to-date on the latest options available. Maybe you’re thinking, "Should I make some updates to my breast implants?"

If you’re considering a revision, you have several . For instance, you might want to switch from saline-filled implants to silicone ones, or maybe you’re thinking of going for a different size. You could even consider changing where the implant is placed or adding some natural fat transfer to the mix.

Changing Your Breast Implants: What You Need to Know

When you come to us considering making changes to your breast implants, we take your request very seriously. We look at each case individually to make the best recommendation for you.

We get that sometimes you want a change, and we’re all about helping you feel your best. But remember, having more than one surgery isn’t something to take lightly. There are risks involved, and your safety is our main concern. Plus, recovering from can be tough, and going through it a second time for a revision isn’t a walk in the park. Our goal is to make sure your recovery is as easy and quick as possible and that you’re thrilled with the end result.

Let’s discuss the recovery aspect for a moment. Say you’re thinking of switching your saline implants to silicone ones but want to keep them in the same position. This is usually one of the easier to recover from.

Don’t get us wrong, saline implants are perfectly safe, and there’s no need to switch them out if you’re not having any problems. But we’ve seen quite a few patients interested in the new silicone implants that are filled with a cohesive gel. These implants are great at their shape, feel incredibly natural, and have some added benefits. For example, they’re less likely to get wrinkled or rippled, and if they break, the gel inside won’t leak out.

This is totally possible as a revision to your initial breast enlargement procedure.

However, you should know that this kind of surgery is a bit more complex because it involves as well. To do a fat transfer, we’ll first need to remove some of your own fat from places where you might have a bit extra, like your thighs or belly. Once we’ve collected this fat, we prepare it and then inject it into specific areas of your breasts to get the look you’re going for.

On the upside, this means you’re killing two birds with one stone—you get to remove some unwanted fat from other parts of your body while improving your breast shape. But the downside is that the procedure is a bit more involved, you might need a bit longer to recover afterwards.

So, if you’re considering enhancing your existing breast augmentation with a fat transfer, consider the added complexity and recovery time. We’re here to discuss all of these details with you so you can make an informed decision that you’ll be happy with.
