Your Trusted Choice for Breast Revision Surgery in New York City

Dr. Harris Specializes in Complex Cases

Breast revision surgery is often more challenging than an initial procedure, requiring a deep understanding of breast anatomy, scar tissue, and advanced surgical techniques. Dr. Harris has nearly 30 years of experience in handling complex revisions, including those involving significant scar tissue, implant exchange, and reshaping after flap reconstruction.

Customized Surgical Planning

Your surgical plan is based on your unique anatomy, prior procedures, lifestyle, and goals. For cosmetic patients, this may involve adjusting implant size, position, or material. For reconstructive patients, we may combine multiple techniques to achieve the most natural and symmetrical result possible.

Compassionate, Collaborative Care

For reconstructive revisions, we coordinate with your oncology and breast surgery team to ensure your revision aligns with your holistic health and treatment plan. For cosmetic revisions, we provide open, honest guidance so you feel fully informed before making decisions.

Focus on Natural, Lasting Results

Our approach balances aesthetics with long-term comfort and safety. We aim to not only improve your current results but also ensure they remain beautiful and proportionate for years to come.

Who is Breast Revision Surgery For?

Breast revision surgery may be right for you if you’ve had a previous breast procedure (augmentation, breast lift, or reconstruction) and you want or need changes.

Cosmetic patients often seek revisions when they are:

  • Unhappy with implant size, shape, or placement
  • Experiencing breast changes due to aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations
  • Dealing with capsular contracture (hardening of scar tissue around implants)
  • Experiencing asymmetry, rippling, deflation, or implant rupture
  • Wanting to switch from silicone to saline implants, or vice versa

Reconstruction patients often seek revisions to:

  • Refine the shape or symmetry after mastectomy or lumpectomy reconstruction
  • Revise flap reconstruction for better balance or projection
  • Replace older implants with newer materials
  • Adjust reconstruction to match changes in the opposite breast

The best way to make sure you’re a candidate for breast revision surgery is to request a consultation and speak with an experienced plastic surgeon about your concerns or issues.

Considering Breast Revision After Reconstruction?

For women who have previously undergone breast reconstruction after cancer treatment, revision can be an important step toward feeling complete again. This may involve adjusting implant size or shape, refining flap tissue, improving nipple-areola reconstruction, or balancing both breasts for a more symmetrical appearance.

Because reconstruction revision often requires careful consideration of scar tissue, blood supply, and previous radiation therapy, it’s important to work with a surgeon experienced in these complex cases. These surgical procedures are often covered under insurance.
