Case Categories: Breast Reconstruction

This patient presented for cosmetic breast revision after having saline breast implants placed many years earlier. She was found to have a rupture of the left saline implant.

Board- certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ruter performed removal of both implants and replaced them with silicone gel implants. In addition, internal tissue tightening (capsulorrhaphy) was performed to improve implant positioning and breast contour. The procedure resulted in a stable reconstruction with an excellent aesthetic outcome.
