Upgrade your implants with breast implant exchange surgery.

Amelia {location} specializes in {procedure}.

Your journey with breast augmentation can evolve, and sometimes, a change is needed to align with new aesthetic goals or to address specific concerns. At Amelia Tampa Bay, we specialize in breast implant exchange surgery in Tampa Bay, Florida, offering a sophisticated path to refresh your look. 

This procedure involves replacing your current implants with new ones, whether you're seeking an updated aesthetic, resolving past complications, or simply aiming for a different, more desirable breast shape. 

At Amelia Tampa Bay, we truly understand that your personal preferences are dynamic, and we're deeply committed to helping you achieve your ideal breast contours through highly personalized care and an expansive array of advanced options.

There are many compelling reasons why individuals consider a breast implant exchange. Perhaps you're now seeking a different breast size or shape that better complements your current lifestyle or body image, a distinct departure from your initial augmentation. 

Alternatively, post-surgical issues such as capsular contracture (where the scar tissue around the implant becomes firm or tight), implant rupture, or even displacement might necessitate a revision. 

Whatever your motivation, our highly skilled surgeon at Amelia Tampa Bay, plastic surgeon Dr. Shabaaz Sandhu, will collaborate closely with you. 

Dr. Sandhu will take the time to fully understand your unique objectives, then meticulously craft a personalized surgical plan tailored precisely for your needs.

Choosing Amelia Tampa Bay for your breast implant exchange in Tampa Bay, Florida, provides an exceptional degree of personalized control over your aesthetic outcome. 

We empower you to make informed decisions about every intricate detail of your new implants, ensuring they seamlessly integrate with your lifestyle and personal vision. 

This comprehensive level of customization encompasses:

  • Breast Implant Volume (Size): This crucial measurement, typically expressed in cubic centimeters (cc), directly dictates the overall fullness and outward projection of the breast. The chosen volume significantly shapes your final silhouette. At Amelia Tampa Bay, you have complete autonomy to select the precise volume you desire, whether you're aiming for a subtle enhancement, a more significant augmentation, or even a refined reduction.
  • Breast Implant Manufacturer (Brand): The choice of manufacturer impacts the implant's technology, the gel's cohesive properties, and available warranty programs. Amelia Tampa Bay is proud to offer a carefully selected range of industry-leading, high-quality breast implant brands, providing you with peace of mind and access to trusted, diverse options:
    • Sientra
    • Motiva
    • Mentor
  • Breast Implant Projection (Profile): This characteristic describes how much the implant projects forward from the chest wall. It's important to note that implants with identical volumes can exhibit varied profiles (e.g., low, moderate, high), profoundly influencing the breast's overall shape and forward contour. With Amelia Tampa Bay, you can precisely select the profile that best harmonizes with your natural anatomy and contributes to your desired aesthetic outcome.
  • Breast Implant Placement: This refers to the precise surgical location of the implant, either situated above the chest muscle (subglandular) or partially/fully beneath it (submuscular or dual plane). Each placement technique offers distinct advantages concerning natural feel, the potential for visible rippling, and the likelihood of capsular contracture. Your Amelia Tampa Bay surgeon, plastic surgeon Dr. Shabaaz Sandhu, will conduct a thorough discussion to determine the optimal placement strategy based on your unique anatomical considerations and aesthetic goals.
  • Breast Implant Type: This indicates the substance with which the implant is filled. The two primary options available are saline (a sterile saltwater solution) and silicone gel (a cohesive, often referred to as "gummy bear" like, silicone material for its soft, resilient feel). Each type possesses unique characteristics in terms of tactile feel, visual appearance, and required long-term maintenance. Amelia Tampa Bay provides comprehensive guidance on both options, enabling you to make the most informed decision for your specific requirements.

At Amelia Tampa Bay, your breast implant exchange surgery will be meticulously performed with the highest degree of surgical precision and compassionate care by plastic surgeon Dr. Shabaaz Sandhu. 

Dr. Sandhu leverages advanced techniques to ensure a safe procedure and achieve stunning, remarkably natural-looking results. Our unwavering commitment is to help you revitalize your confidence and embrace the breast contours you truly desire. 

We warmly invite you to connect with us today to schedule your consultation for breast implant exchange in Tampa Bay, Florida, and personally experience the distinctive Amelia Tampa Bay approach to personalized cosmetic surgery.

What do {procedure} scars look like?

Breast implant exchange scars are along the breast crease.

If you had a crease incision in your primary breast augmentation, you’ll have no additional scars.

Your surgeon will make an incision along the old one and remove existing scar tissue for a brand new scar. Like most incisions, they will take around six weeks to close completely. During that time you may be asked to wear tape over the incisions and avoid submerging in water. 

Keep in mind it takes at least 12 months for scars to look their best. It’s important, especially in the first year to follow and be consistent with your surgeon’s scar protocol.
