Breast Implant Revision in New Jersey / Philadelphia
Given that so many doctors in the Tri-State area claim to be authorities on breast surgery, it is inevitable that some women who have had breast enlargement will be unhappy with the results of another surgeon's work. In other cases, as time passes an implant may deflate or change shape. Thankfully, Dr. Sorokin can perform breast implant revision for New Jersey and Philadelphia area women to help them improve the appearance of their implants. Any number of factors could lead to unsatisfying breast appearance. Sometimes, an implant has stretched out the surrounding skin or has shifted into an unattractive or uncomfortable position. Other times, excess scarring, drooping of the breast, implant asymmetry, or implant rupture leads a patient to seek out surgical correction. Increasingly, women who chose saline implants a few years ago now are interested in upgrading to the more natural look and feel that silicone implants can offer.
If you have additional questions, call 856.872.4158 to schedule an appointment to discuss breast implant revision with New Jersey cosmetic surgeon Dr. Sorokin, a board-certified plastic surgery specialist at Delaware Valley Plastic Surgery. The office is just a short drive from many towns, including Mt. Laurel, Marlton, Berlin, and Voorhees. Breast implant revision can transform a woman's appearance and dramatically improve her self esteem following unsuccessful surgery. Request a consultation with Dr. Sorokin today.
Corrective breast surgery is often more technically challenging and usually takes longer than the original breast augmentation. Philadelphia and New Jersey women unhappy with breast implant appearance should understand what makes this surgery more technically complex. First, internal and external scar tissue can make implant revision more complicated, particularly in patients who have had several prior breast surgeries. Second, stretched and thinned out skin often has developed since the initial surgery, which can limit Dr. Sorokin's reconstruction options. Lastly, the initial surgery usually has altered the anatomy of the breasts and chest wall, in many cases requiring individualized corrective techniques to restore the area to its natural appearance.
Dr. Sorokin often finds that implant revision is a life-changing experience for his patients. Breast implant revision can boost self-esteem and result in dramatic aesthetic improvements. In addition, Dr. Sorokin, as a board-certified plastic surgeon, is optimally trained for the unique challenges and techniques that the procedure requires. These techniques may include moving existing subglandular implants under the pectoral muscle, reconfiguring the breast pocket for more tailored support of an implant, modifying the size or position of the areola, or revising scar tissue.
As more women learn of the benefits of the latest generation of silicone implants, they are increasingly interested in replacing their saline implants with cohesive silicone gel implants. Other women seek breast implant revision in order to adjust the size of their original implants. In these cases, while the initial breast augmentation surgery did not result in an abnormal or aesthetically-challenged breast, patient preference and personal satisfaction are legitimate and common reasons to seek implant revision.
As he does with all his breast augmentation patients, Dr. Sorokin spends a significant amount of time during consultation to understand your concerns and craft a surgical plan that will provide you with an optimal outcome. Dr. Sorokin finds that again and again this extensive patient dialogue is critical to success and patient satisfaction. Note that not all problems can be corrected, and Dr. Sorokin will never promise a result unless he believes it can be delivered.
