Case Notes
This is a revision breast augmentation case in a 29-year-old woman whose left saline implant had ruptured. The plan addressed two things at once: replacing the popped implant and tightening the existing implant pocket to accommodate now silicone "gummy bear" implants. Pocket tightening can affect how the new implants sit, and with highly cohesive silicone implants the look and feel is a perkier breast profile. The contour visible at three months reflects the tissue settling that continues through early recovery. You're looking at what revision surgery can involve when implant failure and pocket condition both need to be corrected in the same procedure. Individual results vary.
