Breast Implant Replacement at "Helyos" Center

Breast implant replacement is a surgical procedure performed for medical or aesthetic reasons. It may be necessary due to implant wear, a desire to change the size or shape of the breasts, or complications arising from a previous surgery. At "Helyos" Center, experienced plastic surgeons use modern techniques and high-quality materials to ensure the best results for patients.

Dissatisfaction with Previous Surgery Results: Uneven shape or incorrect placement of implants.
