Asked By:zqueen33 in Arlington, TX

Had my right gel implant replaced due to grade 4 capsular contracture. This is the 5th procedure this SAME doctor has done because it wasn't done right from the beginning (left side has been fine). This time, I'm getting large blood blisters not even close to insision. Dr. Had me use a safety pin to pop it at home. Now the whole bottom half of my breast is bleeding and Infected. Is this normal?
