Corrective Surgery for Breast Implant Rupture

This pleasant 46 year old female presented with right breast capsular contracture and pain related to rupture of her textured round implant placed by another surgeon 10 years ago.

Notice the deformity in the device likely leading to malfunction (pocket dissection likely didn’t accommodate implant).

She had the device removed and replaced with a smooth round cohesive implant and enjoyed our 24-hour fast track recovery, which starts preop with our enhanced recovery protocols, meticulous and stepwise surgical execution of exchange and postop recovery protocol.

She was able to get back to her rigorous training schedule (with some limitations) in 24 hours.
