"Dr. Lapuerta and his staff gave me the best experience during my procedure, and exceeded my expectations. Dr. Lapuerta took his time during the consultation and reviewed many important points regarding my health and desired look. He made an amazing decision during the procedure to maintain perfect symmetry, this shows his great experience and interest in patient successful outcome, and I'm so thankful for that. His wife is his anesthesiologist, she really educated me on all the steps involved and ensured me I was in good hands. Brandi the office manager maintained a very professional character during the process and helped me obtain important paperwork. Sonia always greeted me with a smile and was attentive and delegated all my questions. The nurse Jana took the time to work on my paperwork and advocated for me as her patient. Shelby was also amazing, I love how she explained the medication as she applied to my incisions and kept me informed of everything that was being done to me. I truly trusted them with my life and I am so happy with my results and most importantly my health. I recommend Dr. Lapuerata to everyone who needs a plastic surgeon. 5 plus stars!"

Breast revision is an outpatient surgery that may be necessary if you’ve had issues with your breast implants. This surgery can help with implants that have ruptured, deflated, or shifted position. The procedure can also be required when your current implants have reached the end of their life. The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and takes between one and two hours, depending on the work needed.
You can expect swelling and bruising similar to the first surgery, with a recovery process that will take a few weeks. You’ll be restricted on how much bending and lifting you can do until the incisions heal. As the swelling reduces, you’ll begin to see the results.
There are many benefits to getting a breast revision. This procedure can alleviate the pain and discomfort you’ve experienced due to the previous surgery or the implants themselves. For instance, it can help resolve pain caused by capsular contracture, the scar tissue that forms around the implants. This surgery also allows you to change the size or shape of your implants if you desire a different look than before.
