About Breast Revision Surgery

Breast revision is a surgical procedure that aims to correct or improve the results of a previous breast augmentation, lift, or reconstruction. It can address various concerns, including implant rupture, capsular contracture, asymmetry, or dissatisfaction with implant size, shape, or position. Some women also choose breast revision to remove their implants entirely and return to a natural appearance. At Quintessa, our board-certified surgeons customize each procedure to your unique needs, helping you achieve results that align with your goals.

Best Candidates for Breast Revision

Breast revision surgery may be right for you if you’re experiencing any of the following concerns related to a previous breast procedure:

Implant rupture or leakage
Capsular contracture causing firmness or discomfort
Implants that have shifted or changed position
Asymmetry between the breasts
Dissatisfaction with implant size, shape, or feel
Visible rippling or wrinkling of the implants
Desire to remove implants entirely for health or personal reasons

Types Types of Breast Revision Offered

At Quintessa in Madison, we offer a variety of breast revision procedures tailored to your individual needs and aesthetic goals:

Breast implant exchange: This procedure involves removing your current implants and replacing them with a different size, shape, or type. It’s ideal if you want to enhance your results, correct complications, or update to a newer implant style.
Capsular contracture correction: If scar tissue around your implant becomes hard or painful, we can remove the capsule and replace the implant. Advanced techniques like internal mesh support may be used to reduce the risk of recurrence.
Implant malposition repair: For implants that have shifted downward, sideways, or unevenly, surgical pocket modification and reinforcement can restore proper placement and symmetry. Internal bra mesh may be added for long-term support.
Implant removal (explant surgery): If you choose to remove your implants entirely, we offer expert explant procedures with or without a breast lift. This option can relieve discomfort and help you return to a more natural shape.
Subfascial conversion: This modern technique repositions implants above the muscle but beneath the fascia to reduce distortion and animation deformities. It’s ideal for patients experiencing complications from submuscular placement.
Combined procedures: Many patients benefit from combining techniques—such as implant exchange with a lift or mesh reinforcement with fat grafting—for natural results. Your surgeon will develop a personalized plan during your consultation.

Our Three Step Process

The Breast Revision Procedure

Your breast revision surgery at Quintessa will be fully customized to address your unique concerns and goals. During the procedure, your surgeon will use your existing incisions whenever possible to minimize new scarring. Depending on your needs, the surgery may involve removing or replacing your implants, correcting scar tissue, repositioning the implant pocket, or adding internal mesh for support. If needed, a breast lift or fat grafting may be performed at the same time. The procedure typically lasts about one to two hours.

Breast Revision Recovery and Results

You can expect a recovery period of 5 to 7 days, though this may vary based on the complexity of your procedure. You’ll be able to return to light activities within a week, but should avoid strenuous exercise for at least two weeks. Mild swelling, bruising, or discomfort is normal and can be managed with medication and support garments. As you heal, your breast shape and symmetry will gradually improve, revealing results that feel more comfortable, natural, and aligned with your current aesthetic goals.

Postoperative Planning

After your breast revision surgery, we’ll guide you through a thoughtful postoperative care plan to support your healing and long-term results. Here’s what you can expect:

A soft surgical bra will be placed after your bandages are removed in our clinic the next day
You should avoid underwire bras for at least four weeks
Light walking is encouraged, but avoid rigorous activity for two weeks
Some numbness or hypersensitivity is normal and will improve over time
Follow-up appointments ensure your recovery is progressing as planned
