Breast Augmentation Revision in Houston
If you are unhappy with the results of a previous breast surgery or your needs have changed over time, breast augmentation revision in Houston, TX, can help restore both comfort and confidence. At The Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgery (ACPS), our board-certified surgeons specialize in advanced revision techniques that deliver natural-looking, lasting results.
What Is Breast Augmentation Revision?
Breast augmentation revision surgery corrects, improves, or updates the results of previous breast augmentation. Women choose revision surgery for a variety of personal reasons, including:
- Wanting a different implant size or type (elective implant exchange)
- Addressing unnatural-looking results, such as implant rippling or asymmetry
- Correcting complications, such as capsular contracture, implant malposition or rupture
- Adding structural support for better shape and long-term stability
- Restoring definition of the breast crease
- Improving scars
As one of Texas’s largest aesthetic surgery groups, ACPS brings a depth of knowledge and collaboration to even the most complex cases. Dr. Christopher Patronella is especially recognized for his leadership in breast revision surgery, and his expertise guides the group in achieving consistently excellent results.

Am I a Good Candidate for Breast Augmentation Revision?
You may benefit from revision surgery if you are dissatisfied with the way your breasts look or feel, or if you are experiencing complications from a previous augmentation. Candidates are generally:
- In good physical and emotional health
- At a healthy, stable weight
- Are prepared to take time out for recovery
- Have realistic expectations for what surgery can achieve
During your consultation, your surgeon will carefully evaluate your anatomy, discuss your goals, and explain options for creating the best possible outcome.
Your Revision Breast Procedure
Breast augmentation revision is performed in our private, QUAD A-accredited SurgiCentre as an outpatient procedure using a general anesthetic. This setting offers the highest standards of safety and continuity of care, with the convenience of remaining in the hands of your surgeon and our attentive team from start to finish.
We customize every revision procedure at ACPS. Depending on your needs, surgery may involve:
- Exchanging your implants for a different size and fill material
- Reshaping the breast pocket and reinforcing it with internal support
- Removing your original scars to improve their placement or appearance
Your surgeon performs these techniques with a focus on both precision and aesthetics, ensuring your results look natural and harmonious with your body.
How Long Does Breast Implant Revision Surgery Take To Heal?
Most women resume light activities within a few days and return to normal routines within 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the extent of their surgery. Soreness, swelling, and bruising are normal and typically peak within 3 to 5 days. You may need to wear a surgical bra for several weeks to protect the surgical area and support your breasts while they heal.
Your surgeon will monitor you throughout the healing process to address any concerns and make sure your results continue to refine beautifully over time. With 3 Houston-area offices and flexible scheduling, our support and guidance are always accessible when you need them.

If you’ve experienced firmness, discomfort, or changes in your breast shape after breast implants, you may qualify for a clinical study now enrolling at The Aesthetic Center for Plastic Surgery. This national research effort evaluates the use of surgical mesh to support healing and reduce the likelihood of capsular contracture recurrence.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need breast implant revision surgery?
You may be a candidate for revision surgery if you are unhappy with the look, feel, or position of your implants, or if you are experiencing complications such as implant hardening, rippling, or shifting.
Some women choose revision surgery to update their implant type or size to better match their current lifestyle and preferences; others have their implants removed and not replaced. A consultation with an experienced ACPS surgeon is the best way to determine whether revision is right for you.
What are the signs that my breast implants need to be replaced?
You may need to replace one or both implants if you experience changes in breast size or shape, pain, firmness, rippling, or visible implant shifting. Capsular contracture, implant rupture, or dissatisfaction with appearance are also common reasons. ACPS surgeons carefully evaluate your concerns and recommend the safest, most effective next steps. Learn more by reading our blog post about implant warning signs.
Can you fix a botched breast augmentation?
Yes. Our board-certified plastic surgeons specialize in complex revision cases, including correcting unsatisfactory results from previous surgeries performed elsewhere. Techniques may include repairing the implant pocket, redefining the breast crease, improving scars, or exchanging implants for a more natural look. At ACPS, even challenging cases benefit from our team’s depth of expertise and collaborative approach.
Can breast implant revision fix breast asymmetry or rippling?
Yes. Revision surgery is often used to correct implant asymmetry, rippling, or uneven positioning. By reshaping the implant pocket, adding structural support, or replacing the implants, our surgeons can create a beautiful, more balanced, and natural appearance.
Is breast implant revision more painful than the first surgery?
Recovery from revision surgery is usually similar to, or easier than, the first breast augmentation. Discomfort is usually well managed with prescribed medication and supportive garments. Because ACPS surgeons use advanced techniques and provide attentive follow-up care, patients often report a smoother overall recovery experience.
