During implant exchange surgery, the existing breast implants are removed, and new implants are placed in the desired position. Dr. Cohen may also perform additional techniques, such as capsulectomy (removal of scar tissue) or adjusting the implant pocket, to achieve optimal results. The procedure is tailored to each patient’s specific goals and anatomy.
During the consultation, Dr. Cohen will evaluate the patient’s current implants, discuss concerns or goals, and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan. This may include selecting new implants, addressing any complications, and planning the surgical approach.
Recovery from implant exchange surgery varies based on the extent of the procedure and individual healing factors. Patients can expect some initial swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medications and post-operative instructions. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor healing progress and ensure optimal results.
