Breast Implant Problems in New York – Breast Surgery NYC

If you are experiencing any of the following breast implant problems, we can correct it and give you the physique you are looking for:

• Encapsulation (Capsular Contracture)
• Botched Prior Augmentation
• Flawed Breast Reconstruction (after mastectomy or breast lift)
• Leaking Implant(s)

 

Capsular Contracture – Tackling New York Breast Implant Problems in Our Breast Surgery NYC Centers

Through the body’s own natural reaction to a foreign object (breast implant), sometimes a “capsular contracture” can occur. Every breast, after receiving an implant, will work to form a scar tissue capsule around the new foreign object. This is a normal part of the healing process that occurs.

For some of our patients, however, the scar tissue is too tight and squeezes on the breast implant. The result is a change in the shape of the breast, asymmetry in the size, and anything from slight discomfort to moderate pain in the affected breast(s). Fortunately, our skilled New York breast implant problems surgeon can help fix this in our breast surgery NYC and Long Island centers.

Capsular contracture can occur with either type of breast implant (silicone or saline), is generally fixed with surgical intervention, and can reoccur in patients prone to this condition. Only a specialist such as one of our breast surgery NYC plastic surgeons can determine the best course of treatment after a thorough examination and learning more about the patient’s history.

 

Botched Breast Augmentation? Our New York Breast Implant Problems Surgeon, Dr. Theodore Diktaban, Can Help You in Our Breast Surgery NYC or Long Island Center.

Due to the increase in popularity of breast augmentation procedures as well as unethical “price wars” between surgery centers, we are seeing an ever-increasing number of New York breast implant problems patients who have received a substandard augmentation from another provider. New York breast surgeons without specific training in plastic surgery are performing augmentations in order to “jump on the bandwagon” and make some quick cash.

Additionally, we are seeing an unfortunate increase in breast surgery NYC plastic surgery centers that operate on cheap prices and sheer volume alone (the more patients they see, the lower their prices). These are not proper principles for professionalism or patient safety! We are glad to perform breast augmentation revision for our New York breast implant problems patients with the understanding that you get what you pay for. We offer only the best to our breast surgery NYC and Long Island patients; Board Certified Plastic Surgeons, AAAHC accredited surgery centers with top safety standards, and competitive pricing (as compared to what equally-qualified surgeons in the area are charging).

 

Flawed Breast Reconstruction

After a breast lift or reconstruction following a mastectomy, unfortunately some New York breast surgery patients are dissatisfied with their results. It could be due to any number of reasons including excessive scar tissue at the incision site (keloid scarring), asymmetry of the breasts (unevenness), or less-than-desired breast size. If any of these are the case for you than a breast revision procedure by one of our breast surgery NYC surgeons is in order.
