Dr. Ciaravino also specializes in corrective surgery for women who
already have breast implants but want to refine the appearance or
feel of their breasts. These 're-do' procedures can make a significant
improvement in the patient's breast shape, implant position, softness,
and scars. A large portion of Dr. Ciaravino's practice is dedicated
to these challenging repair operations.
In the following cases, Dr. Ciaravino improved complications from
previous surgery (by other surgeons).
