Breast Implant Revision

What is breast implant revision surgery?

Breast implant revision surgery, which commonly involves removal and/or replacement of saline or silicone breast implants, is performed to change the size or type of your implants and to correct any complications from your primary breast augmentation. The overall goal is to restore a youthful breast contour and appearance. Dr. Steve Kim, a board certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon, is highly skilled and sought after by other Beverly Hills and Los Angeles plastic surgeons to preform corrective surgeries for their patients.
