I am looking to get en block capsulectomy. My question is will recovery be easier and the cost of procedure be less due to the fact that my implants are over the muscle and I have only had them for 3 years and don't believe I have capsular contracture.?
Answer: Removal En bloc surgery is for cancer surgery only and does not refer to removing implants or the capsules. It is much more involved and something you probably will not have. Removal with the capsules may be similar to your first procedure in pain and recovery.

Answer: Post-op capsulectomy Your recovery should be easier as compared to a subpectoral capsulectomy however the amount of dissection and the complexity of the procedure is going to depend on how thick your capsule is and how thick your native breast tissue is over the capsule. In terms of cost, that is something you need to discuss with your surgeon. Every surgeon has different charges for their procedures. Some charge a standard rate for a capsulectomy where as others may charge different rates depending if your implants are above or below the muscle.
