I’ve already had two revisions, one bigger one under general and one under local. My left looks great and my right is still saggier and more lateral skin with just not a great shape. Do I need more skin excision and a nipple lift or is this a pocket issue? I’m very frustrated after all the money I’ve spent and I feel like this should have been addressed after two revisions. I just want the left to look like the right, I can’t afford to go under again. Thank you

First, "en bloc" terminology is used for surgery for cancer and removes part of the breast tissue beyond the capsule. If you did have cancer, you still qualify for reconstructive surgery on your breasts. If you just chose to have the capsules and implants removed, then you could have smaller...
Nothing is safe about 1050 cc implants! Please do not even consider going that large. Since you have had a lift and are doing well, just keep what you have. Sagging tissue, and you were sagging initially, does not support heavy implants well.
Since this is your fourth capsule and it is stage four, removing the implants and capsules will be your best solution. Otherwise, you need to go smaller and use mesh to completely cover the implants. Mesh is expensive and does not guarantee you will not develop another capsule.
