Thank you everyone. I know I need to be patient. I am a little annoyed that my doctor never went over the healing process for this with me. Granted I should have done my own research. I will be patient. Is there a point when I can maybe sleep with the bandage off and just have it on when I am awake during the day?
The first augmentation was with Saline implants, under the muscle. Capsular Contracture, grade 2-3 followed less than a year after, with pain. My surgeon offered Silicone as the next option and I went for it. I've had these for almost 2 years and the Left Breast has maybe a grade 2 contracture (no pain) while the right breast is fine. So the textured implants are my "hail marry" so-to-speak.
A number of you recommended a strattice graft, which I am googling to figure out exactly what that is. My surgeon has not brought this up, and I am wondering why. I am going to ask him to look into this as well.
