The best decision I have ever made

From the moment I walked through the doors I was warmly welcomed. Dr Cassileth is friendly, caring, very knowledgeable and advanced in her field. I loved how the nurses would check on me at home (after surgery). I am very pleased with my results and the exceptional support of Dr Cassileth and her staff.

Beyond happy and relieved

Dr. Cassileth removed my breast implants inclusive of all surrounding capsule and performed a breast lift. I will continue to be seen at the office for ultrasound and laser treatments through the year, to minimize any bruises, swellings and scars. I am beyond happy and relieved that I picked the right practice.

FAQ

Am I a good candidate?

If your implants are visible, malpositioned or displaced, have ruptured or rippled, notice breast asymmetry, skin or nipple malposition, skin laxity, or dissatisfaction with the result of a previous reconstruction – then you may be a good candidate.

WHAT WILL MY BREASTS LOOK LIKE AFTER SURGERY?

Some patients bounce back easily after implant removal, especially if their implants are small and the breasts aren't droopy. Larger implants or sagging may require additional procedures like breast lifts or fat grafting. Techniques vary depending on breast tissue and volume. Dr. Cassileth may use internal lifts to avoid scars, and specialized approaches can repair damage or prevent drooping. Fixing issues from poorly done implant removals is also common. Each patient's situation is unique, and the treatment plan is tailored to individual needs.

How many surgeries will I need?

Most patients require between two and four surgeries, depending on factors like the size of their breast implants and the amount of fat available for harvest in another body area. For patients whose implants are in the submuscular position, the surgeon will also need to repair the pectoral muscles.

How soon after my first implant removal surgery can I consider revision surgery?

This depends on various individual factors. To allow time for healing, we recommend patients wait a minimum of six months after their initial breast reconstruction surgery. Revision may be sought earlier if there is a complication that needs immediate attention.

Will insurance cover breast reconstruction revision surgery?

Elective revision surgery that is primarily cosmetic in nature may not be covered. Insurance may cover revision surgery that is considered medically necessary. Coverage will depend on the specifics of your insurance plan.

Outstanding team

Dr. Cassileth and her team are outstanding! I was extremely nervous about my explant procedure and vacillated for quite a while (years) before committing. From the get-go, Dr. Cassileth and her team were assuring and alleviated my anxiousness! Everything from pre-op care to after-care has been wonderful.

Love my results

Dr. Cassileth is the BEST doctor ever. Not only is she a badass surgeon but she is so easy to talk to and just a genuine person through and through. You can tell she loves what she does and it trickles down to everyone in the office. I had my breast implants removed with fat transfer and I love my results.

LAVINIA

Provided so much support

I am very happy that I chose Dr. Cassileth for my surgery. Her whole team is very knowledgeable and have provided so much support during what can be a very emotional and physically exhausting process - but they have held my hand throughout my journey and I am grateful for the expertise her and her team have shown.

Consultation

At your first meeting with your plastic surgeon, you will have the chance to talk about your concerns with your reconstructed breasts and the look and feel you want to achieve with your reconstruction revision surgery.

Pre-operative preparations may include stopping the use of certain medications. You will receive detailed instructions on preparing for surgery to ensure a safe procedure.
