“Bruising/bleeding of Encapsulated Breasts After Augmantation Surgery (Silicone, Under-muscle)”

It sounds like you're experiencing capsular contracture, but I've got the sense that you already had an informed idea to that effect. From what you've described, the process is continuing to get worse with time. You definitely need to address this sooner rather than later. I believe that your best option will be surgical. This doesn't necessarily mean (permanent) removal of your implants. But it will mean either a capsulectomy or a capsulotomy; as to which is better is a decision best left for the surgeon. He will definitely want a satisfied patient, and will choose the process best suited to your situation and his experience. That said, you did mention that your original surgery was 8 years ago, which is getting pretty close to the expected time needed to replace the implants anyway. You'll need to confirm with the surgeon whether you'll be able to keep your current implants, or whether you'll need to replace them. I believe there's a non-surgical approach to resolving this, but from what I've read, it's not usually considered. It involves the surgeon squeezing the breast sufficiently firmly to cause the capsule to rupture. (The risk of damage to the implant is minimal, although you did mention the implants are 8 years old.) This can be quite uncomfortable for the patient, which is why the surgical approach is the preferred method. That, and with a surgery, the surgeon can take a close look to make sure everything inside the implant pocket is in order before reinserting the implants (if he chooses to remove them to remove the capsules), possibly adding a few sutures to improve on the pockets. These details should be discussed with your surgeon as to whether the extra work (such as it is) is a real possibility, something which will be a "game day" decision while you are under anaesthetic. There is a whole post-op protocol you should discuss with the surgeon as well, in order to minimize the recurrence of the capsular contracture. I realize you indicated that the surgery isn't currently an option financially, but it sounds like you need to make this a priority in your life. Do get a few (more than one) pre-op consults, to get a sense as to whether there is only One Option available to you, or whether you have an option or two.

i also had a bad experince w implants. under the muscle with tubes that were injected every other day. no topical numbing an the dr couldnt ever hit the right spot so each visit was getting stuck under my breasts 3 or 4 times each. the ports were supposed to be out in 2 weeks but they were left from oct 17th until feb 27th. when i went in to get them out he had to giveme a total of 14 numbing shots and when the feeling came back before he could get them out (yes they were imbedded with muscle grew around them and they had to be cut out) i told him i could feel him sewing me up an it was painful and his words were lay still or i will give you some more of those painful shots and i wouldnt go back for my last visit because each one was pure torture from him.

The treatment for capsular cotracture is surgery, almost the same expense as before if not more because you need capsulectomy. i tell my patient they WILL have surgery in the future once you have implants. The bruising you have concerns me You need to see your BOARD CERTIFIED PS. You must discuss all your options and pros and cons, future surgeries, Capsular contracture and other risks.
