Breast Implant Revision in Turkey, Prices of Istanbul Clinics 2024

Why to perform a breast implant revision in Istanbul, Turkey?

As a popular tourist destination in Turkey, Istanbul had a well-developed healthcare infrastructure with modern hospitals and cosmetic surgery facilities. Indeed, Istanbul has been making efforts to improve its healthcare services and attract medical tourists from around the world with the best quality at affordable costs. For this reason, many patients have preferred this destination to perform cosmetic breast surgeries such as breast implant revision. These are the conditions to do breast implant revision :

• Implants that have fallen and produced a bottoming out are repositioned.
• Breast implant can be exchanged for a different size or type.
• Capsular contracture, double bubble, or bottoming out are all complications that need to be addressed.
• If the nipples are pointing down or sit too low on the implant, it may be necessary to be repositioned.
• Revising scars.
• Breast implants are removed without being replaced.

Types of Breast Revision in Istanbul Clinics

Many healthcare professionals in Istanbul, Turkey, are specialized in breast implant revision and provide patients with many options to meet their needs and expectations.

Excessively Wide Cleavage

Breasts that are too far apart may be the result of poor implant selection and insufficient pectoral muscle release.

Symmastia or 'kissing implants' 

Symmastia is a rare disorder in which the breast implants are too close together at the chest's centerline, causing the skin to rise away from the breastbone. Instead of existing as two independent breasts, it appears as if the pair have fused as one.

Deformity of the Double Bubble

When a breast implant is placed lower than the existing inframammary crease, the double-bubble deformity results. It can happen if a breast implant is placed below the original crease during surgery or if the implant falls below the crease over time, resulting in a contour deformity.

Implant exchange, pocket modifications, the "Internal Bra surgery," or lipofilling may be required for correction.

The breast Lift

If the implant (typically anatomic implant) does not absorb the sagginess, the patient will require a mastopexy or breast lift.

The implant Rippling

The implant's edge wrinkles or causes ripples. These ripples may then be visible on the skin of the breast. When the patient is exceptionally thin, there is very little tissue available to cover the implant area, making this a challenging correction. Lipofilling is a possibility.

The capsular Contracture

All the implants are encased. These capsules, which the body creates to protect the implant, are generally soft and malleable. However, for a variety of causes, they can become firm over time in some patients, making the breasts feel harder and sometimes painful.
