Areola Reconstruction, The Woodlands, Kingwood, Conroe, North Houston

Revision of previous breast reconstruction can be expected. It is often required to fine-tune your results. It is important to remember that breast reconstruction is a process of building an aesthetically pleasing breast from what mastectomy took away. It is not a quick process.

• Revisions to the breast reconstruction are often needed to:
• reduce the breast size,
• to improve breast shape or projection,
• reduce excess tissue,
• revise mastectomy, lumpectomy, or IV port scars.

Autologous tissue revisions are generally considered to be one of the most artistically challenging surgeries for breast reconstruction. The patient’s choice of plastic surgeon is an important choice for autologous tissue revision surgeries, and should be decided only after careful research.

With any revision, a proven and experienced plastic surgeon can often turn a mediocre breast reconstruction into an excellent restoration.
