Long Beach Breast Implants doctors

The pectoral fascia provides no additional meaningful coverage for an implant. Having a subglandular implant puts you at risk for superior pole rippling. Rather than shopping for a doctor who will perform the operation you think you want, try getting opinions from experienced breast surgeons who will explain what approach/implant will give you the best possible result.

While the concept of an adjustable implant has a certain appeal, the reality of it often disappoints. Making a device more complicated (remote access port, double lumen) often leads to an increased device failure rate or higher complication rate.  I know of no one in my area who uses them. When it comes to breast surgery, keep it simple and straightforward! Hope this helps!

There are several studies on the subject and the incidence appears to be somewhere between 5 and 8%. More importantly, the capsular contracture rate can be very surgeon dependent. Sloppy surgeons will have a higher rate due to blood product around the implant. Get more than one opinion from experienced breast surgeons. Good luck!
