The corrective breast surgery
[00:00:09.618]
is any patient
that's had previous breast surgery
[00:00:12.400]
and is unhappy with a certain aspect
of the post-operative results.
[00:00:19.142]
This could be from augmentation,
breast lift, or even breast reduction.
[00:00:25.867]
Patients that look in the mirror
[00:00:29.242]
and are unhappy with their appearance
of their breasts after surgery
[00:00:32.843]
should always find out
what's available to them.
[00:00:37.467]
The process of corrective breast surgery
[00:00:39.218]
depends on the surgery
that's been performed.
[00:00:42.092]
For instance, if we have to remove
and replace implants
[00:00:45.958]
and repair the pocket,
[00:00:47.600]
then that could take
an hour and a half, two hours.
[00:00:50.017]
If we have to change out implants,
[00:00:53.476]
revise the pocket,
and redo the entire lift,
[00:00:57.042]
that could take
three or four hours to perform.
[00:00:59.883]
The recovery time for reoperative
breast surgery is usually a weekend.
[00:01:04.142]
We tell folks
if they get it done on Thursday,
[00:01:05.934]
they could be back to work on Monday.
[00:01:08.008]
They'll be a little sore,
[00:01:09.443]
but unless they're a woofer
or a jackhammer operator,
[00:01:13.325]
they should be able to go back to work.
[00:01:15.033]
Here we do a lot of revision
or corrective breast surgery.
[00:01:19.333]
There's a lot of patients
that look for the cheapest price in town
[00:01:23.001]
or the social media favorite.
[00:01:26.233]
But we've found that going
to the cheapest guy or the best-known
[00:01:32.183]
is not a guarantee of getting
the results that you want.
