First surgery 13 years ago, Mentor Smooth 175 210 Revision surgery Motiva 245 260 The biggest reason I had revision surgery was implant rupture. I went for a health checkup and was told there were findings of damage to the left implant, and until then I didn't know it had ruptured It was only after 10 months had passed until the revision surgery that I finally had surgery The previous hospital had closed, and honestly, I had no intention of doing it there anyway For the hospital, I definitely looked for a place good at reconstruction, and I found a hospital that had been famous for breast surgery and reconstruction in one place for over 20 years I immediately looked into it and booked an appointment I went to the place where I had booked the appointment, consulted with the consultant, met the director, and decided right away. There was nothing to hesitate about; I trusted them. I even liked the aftercare. The director looked at my breasts and said the shape wasn't pretty at all, and if I was doing revision surgery, shouldn't the shape at least be pretty? When I said I wasn't greedy about size, he said it's not about size, shouldn't the size that fits me go in? Honestly, I hadn't thought about size and only had rupture in my head. I was more focused on just resolving that. And after surgery, how much would it hurt again? I had suffered so much during the first surgery, so when I asked the director, he said to think of it as 20% of the pain from the first surgery. I thought again that I had chosen the right hospital I set the surgery date, and maybe because my mind was at ease, I slept very well the day before and went alone for surgery. Before going into surgery, they did an ultrasound, and fortunately they explained that it hadn't spread elsewhere. I felt relieved Went into the operating room and blacked out The surgery ended safely, and the recovery room nurse said, congratulations, you don't have a drain. haha Compared to my first surgery, I really thought, huh? It doesn't hurt-? It was just a stiff, sore feeling. They said to take Tylenol separately if the pain was severe, but it wasn't to that degree I confidently checked out alone, took the subway and bus home On the day of surgery, there was slight pain and stiffness when lying down, exactly 4 days Other than discomfort from the bandage, it was okay First surgery: armpit incision Revision surgery: inframammary incision
