  • Posted to Implant Removal Without Lift, Partial Capsule Removal - Seattle, WA on 14 May 2012

    Thanks. My Doctor is on holiday and unreacheable. That's why I'm asking here.

    Mine were removed with partial capsulectomy Arpil 17. Girls - how long does the redness on the incisions last? My incisions are under the breast. And it's so hard to find a bra that doesn't touch this area- any suggestions? Also, can you/should you, put vitamin E on the incisions? And if so, when?

    To kylief, and anyone else in the LA area? I just had mine out at UCLA Med., wih Dr. Timothy A Miller. He was the best in every way possible, and his wonderful team. For 24 hour post-op aftercare, I went to "Serenity", in Santa Monica, also, perfection, and felt like Heaven on earth. The Hotel Angeleno has special rates for patients at UCLA too, and a shuttle service back and forth (pre-arranged). I don't know if I'm supposed to post names here? But I am so grateful for my positive experience.

    My drains come out tomorrow. Does it hurt? My doc left them in for 7 days, though I had very little output. I'm scared my skin will have started to heal around them, and it will tug, pulling them out and the stiches for them.

    HI. I'm so happy that you are at the other end of this. What good news! My surgery is Thursday, in Los Angeles. I was just looking at the beautiful, almost full moon last night, and thinking, that by next month's full moon, I wonder what will be? How I look, how it all went? And (hopefully), it will all be behind me.
