A detailed consultation with Dr. Martin Moskovitz for breast revision surgery in NY, is designed to evaluate the revisionary options available to you.

Types of Breast Revision Surgery

  • Implant Removal – Removal of implants only, some cases may require capsule removal which is scar tissue formed around the implant.

  • Implant Removal with Fat Transfer to Breasts- Removal of implants combined with fat transfer to the breast to add volume in place of implant. Fat is harvested typically from abdomen, back or thighs via liposuction.
  • Implant Exchange - Removal and replacing implants due to size or style change, rupture. Some cases may require capsule removal also which is scar tissue formed around the implant.
  • Implant Exchange with Breast Lift- Removal and replacing implant combined with a breast lift due to low hanging breast (after weight loss, pregnancy).
