Breast Augmentation Revision – Patient 102

A mother of 3 in her mid 40’s who developed a sudden implant deflation on her right side, 21 years after having saline implants. She did not have her original records. Her left intact implant was weighed at the time of removal, 392 gms. They were both replaced with 375 cc smooth round high profile cohesive silicone gel implants. She had an extended abdominoplasty along with repair of an umbilical hernia. Seri Surgical scaffold was used to reinforce the umbilical hernia repair at the time of surgery. EXPAREL was used at the end of surgery to decrease postoperative pain. She is shown before and again, 4 months after surgery. There is typically still some swelling in the lower abdomen for the first 6 months, so she may decrease a little more in the lower abdomen. She reports that she is down from a 10 to a 6 dress size. The oblique view demonstrates the periumibilical hollow and champagne groove sculpted in the fat at the time of surgery.
