What to Expect During Breast Revision

Understanding the process can help you feel prepared. Your procedure will begin with general anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Once you’re fully anesthetized, Dr. Layliev will perform the necessary steps to revise and enhance your breast implants.

The existing implants may be removed or replaced. If needed, additional procedures like breast reconstruction or lymphatic drainage after explant may be included to enhance results.

Breast Reconstruction After ExplantBreast reconstruction after explant is a surgical procedure to restore the appearance of the breasts after implant removal. It may involve using implants or tissue flaps to rebuild the breast shape and volume.

Lymphatic Drainage After ExplantLymphatic drainage after explant is a non-invasive therapy that helps reduce swelling and promotes healing. It stimulates the lymphatic system to drain excess fluid from the surgical area.

After Dr. Layliev makes the necessary adjustments, he will suture the incisions to complete the procedure.
