Q: Advice for breast implant size after capsulectomy?
A:
It is difficult to size a patient accurately under these circumstances. Sizing depends on your desired look afterwards (natural vs. obvious), your chest width, and your breast ptosis, among other factors. You can have smaller implants as long as you are willing to have a mastopexy to gather the excess skin to shape the breasts. Your surgeon will likely use a sizer and have several implant options at hand to give you the look you desire. Good luck!
