Revision surgery corrects a problem with previous implants — contracture, malposition, a dropped fold or a change of size. Dr Thomas Colson treats grade III/IV capsular contracture with en-bloc capsulectomy, implant exchange and regenerative lipofilling, tailored to the specific problem.
Revision surgery addresses a problem with previous implants — hardening, malposition, a dropped fold, rippling, or a wish to change size. Dr Colson adapts the operation to the complexity of the specific problem rather than applying one routine.
For an established grade III–IV capsular contracture, he performs an en-bloc capsulectomy — removing implant and capsule together — usually with an implant exchange and regenerative lipofilling to restore soft-tissue cover and calm the pocket.
Implant malposition is corrected with scars placed according to areolar position. A dropped inframammary fold is rebuilt with capsulorrhaphy or, in selected cases, an abdominal advancement flap to re-establish a stable fold.
In line with UAE Department of Health guidelines on modesty and medical advertising, breast surgical results are not published online. Outcomes relevant to your own anatomy are reviewed privately during your consultation, alongside a Crisalix 3D simulation of your planned result.
Consultations and surgery with Dr Thomas Colson are performed exclusively at Sheikh Khalifa Medical City (SKMC) in Abu Dhabi, within the SEHA network. A pre-operative Crisalix 3D simulation lets patients preview the planned breast shape before deciding.
