What Is Breast Revision Surgery?
Breast augmentation is one of the most common cosmetic procedures in the U.S., and in the majority of cases, it results in terrific outcomes. However, sometimes, a patient can be dissatisfied with the appearance of her breasts and may require breast revision treatment. Keep in mind not all revision surgeries are due to practitioner error. While few breast augmentations end with an unpleasing outcome, some women want a larger or smaller implant while some may have a defect and prefer to have the implant revised or removed altogether. Furthermore, some women require revision surgery for a specific condition, such as implant removal, capsulotomy, capsulectomy, or capsulorrhaphy. Fredericksburg, VA plastic surgeons Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki provide breast revision surgery after giving an in-depth assessment at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg so that the correct outcome is attained.
What Should I Expect from a Breast Revision?
When you come for your initial consultation, we will learn about your health history, issues, and needs to determine the best way to address your specific concerns. Breast revision surgeries are typically a straightforward procedure performed in our Fredericksburg, VA practice. Revision surgery is an individualized procedure designed to address your unique cosmetic needs. Whether your treatment plan includes an implant revision or removal, capsulotomy, capsulectomy, or capsulorrhaphy, Drs. Heppe, Bautista, and Aflaki will customize the procedure to ensure you get the results you are looking for. It may be necessary to combine services, such as a breast lift with your implant removal, to achieve optimal results.
What Are the Benefits of A Breast Revision?
There are a number of reasons patients choose breast revision procedures at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg.

What Can I Expect After Breast Revision?
Following your surgery and an observation period, you will be sent home to begin your recovery. The overall recovery varies based on the complexity of your surgery. A revision that requires any type of reconstruction or grafting will have a longer recovery, which could last up to 6 – 8 weeks. You should slowly start to see your surgical results once the swelling begins to go down. Dr. Heppe or someone on his team will discuss what is expected during your recovery, plus recommendations to help you heal faster. You should attend follow-up appointments as directed so Dr. Heppe can assess your recovery and results.

The results are life changing - happy with my body modifications - I had a tummy tuck 360 performed in September 2024. The results are life changing. It's not uncomfortable for me to sit anymore and I'm very happy with my body modifications. I would recommend Dr. Aflaki to anyone who is considering cosmetic surgery.
Dr. Aflaki & team are amazing! Mommy makeover after losing 80lbs - After losing 80lbs in less than a year, I was left with loose skin and saggy breasts. I got a consult with Dr. Aflaki. He was empathetic, a great listener, knowledgeable and very helpful. Great experience!
On August 21st I under went surgery, tummy tuck and lipo 360… I did a lot of research and decided to go with Dr. Aflaki, I followed him on social media and looked out for reviews from other patients of his, for about 6 months before deciding to go forward. I was always amazed at his work and I am very happy I chose him…Dr. Aflaki was very professional, he went over so much with me that I never felt in the dark. I went into surgery very confidently having him as my Dr. He is also pleasant to be around, check ups always went very smooth, always felt comfortable and take care of. His staff was also wonderful to me and made sure my caretaker knew everything he needed to know to care for me after surgery. I am overall very happy with the outcome! My results are amazing! My pre-surgery video was taken Aug 21st, the morning of surgery. My post-surgery photo was taken 2 months and 2 weeks. I feel great, physically and mentally!! Thank you so much Dr. Aflaki and his team at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg!
When researching doctors for my rhinoplasty. I visited with a couple of different plastic surgeons that specialize in rhinoplasties but Dr. Aflaki was the obvious choice from the first consult. He took his time explaining everything and removing all doubts about the procedure which made me feel incredibly relieved and more confident to move forward. I ended up having a rhinoplasty and the procedure itself was so much easier than I could have imagined. Recovery was a breeze and painless. which was surprising. I closely followed instructions from Dr.Aflaki everything went really smoothly. I was already feeling like myself after a few days. I’m just over 2 months post-op and am incredibly happy with the results. Dr. Aflaki is an amazing Dr. The changes to my appearance are exactly what I wanted and what we discussed during the consult. I been checking with him for two moths I can I sure you you are in good hands If choose you Dr. Aflaki!
Dr. Bautista is the Only One I Trust. - Dr. Bautista did my breast augmentation surgery in 2005, and I was extremely pleased with the results. I decided to go back to him in 2024 to have my breasts redone, since they were almost 20 years old. I had no issues with them, but I wanted to go a little bigger and Dr. Bautista is the only one I trust to do the surgery. In fact, I even followed up my breast surgery with cool sculpting and am very pleased with the those results as well. He and his staff are extremely professional and very pleasant to work with. I highly recommend him for any cosmetic needs you may have.

Am I a Candidate for a Breast Revision?
Should you have any trouble (either medical or cosmetic) about your breast implants, please make an appointment for a consultation at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg to talk about your goals and to develop your unique plan for breast revision surgery. Whether it's scarring, breast drooping, rippling, or unbalanced breasts, revision surgery can help correct the problem and create a more pleasing and healthy outcome. This operation may also help if you are wanting to alter the implant style, size, or address another aspect of your breasts.
How much does breast revision surgery cost?
Your cost for breast revision surgery will vary greatly depending on the complexity of your procedure. During your consultation, a team member will listen carefully to your concerns and goals before completing a physical exam to assess your implants. Then, they will talk about your options before developing your surgical plan. The cost of breast revision surgery will be based on the complexity of the procedure plus what you choose for your new implants. It's best to focus on getting the desired results by finding an experienced provider rather than the cheapest surgeon. To help make your surgery easy to afford, Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg accepts many different payment methods, and we can give you information on low-interest medical financing.
Do I have to change my implants?
Although implants can last a long time, they will require replacement eventually. After augmentation surgery, it's important to get your implants checked at least once a year so a team member can help you determine if your implants need to be replaced. With so many advances in medical technology, you may prefer the new implant types and shapes to get the best outcome during breast revision surgery.
What about loose skin?
If you are getting your implants removed or are changing to a significantly smaller size of implants, you may need to have excess skin removed during your surgery. After listening to your goals and evaluating your current implants, a team member can discuss adding a breast lift to remove loose skin. If you lose much weight, get pregnant, or breastfeed after breast augmentation surgery, a revision with a lift can help you get better results.
