Implant Revision Case 495

Our 50-year-old patient arrived at our Toledo clinic seeking a solution for the capsular contracture in her left breast, a complication that developed after her second breast augmentation. Understanding her need for a revitalized look and a comfortable lifestyle, we developed a personalized plan focusing on an implant revision procedure. This plan involved a meticulous implant removal followed by a bilateral capsulectomy, aimed to rectify the issue while adhering to patient comfort and her aesthetic ambition. We replaced the original implants with 445cc Soft Touch gel implants and used Galaflex to bolster her inframammary fold. The results were gratifying; the patient was thrilled with her natural-looking and more symmetrical breasts.

Based on her past experience, this patient approached the process of implant revision in Toledo with some trepidation. However, my team and I reassured her through a comprehensive discussion of the procedure; we focused on understanding her concerns and aspirations. It was paramount to ensure that the patient was aware of each step involved in her personalized treatment plan before we progressed with the surgery.

Post surgery, her transformation was truly remarkable. Her renewed self-esteem and satisfaction with the procedure's outcome demonstrated the successful Implant Revision in Toledo, underlining the value of patient-centric, personalized care that we adhere to. It was personally rewarding to witness the positive impact of the surgery on her overall wellbeing. As a board-certified plastic surgeon by the American Board of Plastic Surgeons, and a Clinical Assistant Professor of Surgery at the University of Toledo Medical Center, it is my mission to offer quality, patient-focused surgical care that results in natural and satisfying outcomes. Our practice emphasizes closely working with each patient towards achieving their aesthetic goals.
