Revision Breast Surgery
Breast surgery is among the most commonly performed surgery in the United States and sometimes the results can be less than optimal. Capsular contracture, malposition of implants, widening of the areola, size issues, and poor scarring are just a few of the many problems that can occur. Robert E. Rothfield, MD, FACS is sensitive to these problems and understands that the emotional toll on the patient can be significant. As this is a special interest of his, he sees patients who have had surgery from all over the world. From patients who have been operated on in South America (medical tourism), to patients operated on in one of the many local “centers” in South Florida, to patients operated on by respected surgeons in the local community, Dr. Rothfield has used his experience, attention to detail, and caring touch to improve the results of those patients whose outcome was less than what they had hoped for.
One of Dr. Rothfield’s most common revision breast surgeries involves the exchange of saline implants for silicone implants. MemoryGel Silicone Breast Implants became fully FDA approved for use in cosmetic breast surgery in November 2006. Dr. Rothfield has been using these silicone implants and has been extraordinarily pleased with the results. Some of the advantages of the MemoryGel silicone implants over the saline implants include better shape, more natural feel and less rippling. Dr. Rothfield can answer your questions about the feasibility of changing from saline implants to silicone implants and help you determine whether or not this is an appropriate option for you.
