Breast Implants in Indianapolis

Incision patterns for breast revisions vary depending on the type of revision needed to achieve your goals. If you wish to remove or replace implants from a previous breast augmentation, your surgeon may create an incision in the same location as your original procedure to avoid creating a new scar. However, we may create an incision along the natural crease beneath the breast or around the areola, depending on your anatomy and desired outcomes.

Many patients return to work within a week of removing or replacing their breast implants in Indianapolis. However, your exact timeline depends on the nature of your job.

Patients whose workday consists of more physical labor may take more time off, while those with sedentary positions may return sooner. Your surgeon will help you determine the most appropriate timeline based on your situation and healing progress.

You’re welcome to engage in light physical activity like walking immediately after surgery. However, you should avoid intense cardio and lower-body exercises for at least 2 weeks, and do not push, pull, or lift anything greater than 10 pounds for 6 weeks. Typically, our surgeons clear patients to submerge their chest in water 6 weeks after surgery, once incisions have completely healed.

During your consultation, we provide the clarity you need to move forward with a breast revision with confidence. Your surgeon will provide full instructions for postoperative care and answer your questions about restrictions.

Inverted nipples usually result from shortened milk ducts, which connect the nipple to the chest wall, creating tension and pulling the nipple inward. During a breast revision, your surgeon carefully releases this tension, allowing the nipple to naturally project outward.

Our skilled surgeons can address asymmetry by performing surgery on one or both breasts. We may recommend getting breast implants in Indianapolis if you want to match the smaller breast to the larger breast, placing an implant in the smaller breast. If you want to change the shape or size of both breasts, we can use different-sized implants in each breast to achieve balanced results.

If you want to match the larger breast to the smaller breast, your surgeon may suggest a breast reduction of the larger breast. At Turkle & Associates, your goals define your surgical plan.

Breast implants alone may improve the appearance of tuberous breasts, but in some cases, reconstructive surgery may be required. During your consultation, your surgeon will examine your breasts’ unique anatomy to provide recommendations that align with your vision.

At Turkle & Associates, we offer saline, responsive silicone gel, cohesive gel (“gummy bear”), and soft-touch cohesive gel implants. Each comes in a range of shapes and projections, allowing you to achieve your desired look and feel. During your consultation for breast implants in Indianapolis, your surgeon will help you select the right implants for your needs.
