Correcting Surgery Performed Abroad

Expert Evaluation and Revision of Previous Cosmetic Surgery

Some patients choose to travel outside the United States for cosmetic surgery. While many have positive experiences, others return home disappointed with their results or experiencing complications that require additional care.

At Talbott Plastic Surgery Center, we provide comprehensive evaluations for patients seeking revision after cosmetic procedures performed outside the United States. Our goal is to understand your concerns, determine what can realistically be improved, and develop a personalized treatment plan.

Common Reasons Patients Seek Revision

Patients may come to us because of:

• Unsatisfactory cosmetic results
• Noticeable asymmetry
• Irregular contours
• Poorly positioned or visible scars
• Implant-related concerns
• Healing complications
• Functional problems, such as difficulty breathing after rhinoplasty
• Results that do not match their original goals

Not every concern requires additional surgery. In some cases, nonsurgical treatments or simply allowing more time for healing may be the best recommendation.

Procedures We Commonly Evaluate

We evaluate revision concerns following many cosmetic procedures, including:

• Breast augmentation, breast lift, and breast reduction
• Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty)
• Liposuction
• Rhinoplasty
• Eyelid surgery
• Facelift and neck lift
• Body contouring procedures
• Facial fat grafting

A Careful, Honest Assessment

Revision surgery is often more complex than a first-time cosmetic procedure. Scar tissue, altered anatomy, previous implants, and limited available tissue can all affect what is possible.

During your consultation, Dr. Talbott will carefully review your surgical history, examine your current results, and discuss:

• What can realistically be improved
• Whether additional surgery is appropriate
• Alternative treatment options
• Expected recovery
• Potential risks and limitations

We believe honest expectations are one of the most important parts of successful revision surgery.

Coordinated Care Close to Home

Many patients appreciate receiving ongoing care after returning to the United States. We provide follow-up, long-term monitoring, and continuity of care throughout your recovery.

If you have records from your previous surgery—including operative reports, implant information, or photographs—we encourage you to bring them to your consultation.
