Breast Revision Surgery FAQs

What is breast revision surgery?

Breast revision corrects or improves the results of a previous breast surgery. This might include replacing implants, correcting complications, or adjusting the size or shape of the breasts. Dr. Diaz specializes in complex revision cases that require advanced surgical skills and artistic precision.

How soon after my first surgery can I get a revision?

You’ll need to wait at least 6 months—and ideally 12—for tissues to fully heal before pursuing revision surgery. Dr. Diaz can advise you on timing during your consultation based on your specific situation and healing progress.

Will breast revision leave more scars?

Dr. Diaz aims to use existing scars whenever possible, but some patients may require new incisions. These are carefully planned to be discreet and to heal well over time. His advanced closure techniques minimize visible scarring.

Is breast revision more complicated than the first surgery?

Yes. Revision cases are often more complex because they involve scar tissue, previous implant pockets, or other surgical changes. That’s why choosing an experienced surgeon like Dr. Diaz is so important for achieving optimal results.

What if I want my implants removed completely?

That’s absolutely possible. Dr. Diaz performs explant procedures with or without breast lifts, depending on your goals. You’ll still get a beautiful, natural shape—even without implants.

How much does breast revision cost in Beverly Hills?

Costs vary depending on the complexity of the case and the specific procedures involved. During your consultation, we’ll provide a personalized quote and discuss financing options if needed. Dr. Diaz believes in transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

How long is recovery?

Most patients return to work in 5-7 days, though strenuous activity should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. Dr. Diaz will guide you through every stage of healing with comprehensive aftercare instructions.

Can breast revision fix capsular contracture?

Yes, Dr. Diaz specializes in treating capsular contracture through advanced surgical techniques that remove scar tissue and prevent recurrence. Many patients experience immediate relief and improved breast feel and appearance.

Will insurance cover my breast revision?

Insurance may cover revision surgery if it’s deemed medically necessary, such as for implant rupture or severe capsular contracture. We can help you navigate the insurance process and provide necessary documentation.
