Breast Implant Revision Due to Capsules - Canada

Right breast implant, texturized, saline 360, was overfilled and developed painful capsules. Breasts are also too far apart. Sub-muscular. Left implant, 330, is fine.

The swelling did go down and I like my new breast size, although the right one is larger and very hard due to the capsule.

The texturized implants are being replaced with smooth and both 330's this time.

Great review?

My friends were to far apart and it was because of the muscle pulling off of the Sternum. There are medications that can be taken to help prevent the capsule from forming. You may want to ask your doctor because the medication is an off label use.

Thanks for posting here on RealSelf! How long ago did you have your initial augmentation?

I'm sorry you had to deal with capsules. Ugh. Fingers and toes crossed that this goes more smoothly for you.
