Implant Revision Case 441

After her initial breast augmentation, a 54 year old patient sought my assistance after experiencing bilateral capsular contracture—a complication which is at odds with her active lifestyle. She was interested in an implant revision in Toledo, hoping to restore both the form and function of her implants. The solution I proposed was a bilateral secondary breast augmentation using 450cc Soft Touch gel implants and GalaFlex to offer the necessary additional support.

The revised procedure was performed with careful attention to the patient's specific needs and aesthetic goal. The Soft Touch gel implants were a suitable replacement for the initial implants, bringing a natural yet resilient feel. The patient was particularly impressed with the resilience of the new implants which suited her keen lifestyle while meeting her aesthetic expectations. Meanwhile, GalaFlex, added the structural support needed to maintain the integrity of the breast, mitigating past complications and preventing future ones. The results were beyond satisfying, marking a successful implant revision in Toledo.

As I have been board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery since 1992, my decades of expertise brought this patient peace of mind. Having studied general surgery and plastic surgery at Indiana University School of Medicine and currently running my own practice known as Craig W. Colville, MD, FACS in Toledo, Ohio, I harness a comprehensive understanding of breast augmentation techniques. Being a clinical assistant professor of Surgery at the University of Toledo Medical Centre, offering a comprehensive menu of cosmetic services, and pioneering the use of "gummy bear" breast implants in the region further equips me to tailor procedures to each patient's specific needs. These experiences have enabled me to continuously deliver personalized, effective, and aesthetic results to my patients.
