Where Can I Find a Dr That Specializes in Extra Large Breast Implant Revision?
I need my implants fixed I have saline 1700cc and one has capsule contracture and the left is bottomed out due to tissue. I need alloderm, mastoplexy, and areola revision. I am in West Michigan and no doctors here willll touch me. I am scared to death to travel far for surgery. I really wanted Dr in San Francisco but I am petrified to travel that far. Please help I look like a freak.
