[Mammaplasty on breast implants (or cutaneous expansion in treating distended skin)].
The authors present their experience of the use of skin expansion in secondary surgery to previously implanted breasts. This technique constituted a relatively simple solution with minimal scarring for certain cases in which the residual breast volume was insufficient or non-existent and in which it was impossible to reconstruct a breast with acceptable shape and volume after removal of the implant.
