Do I need to ask for an Enbloc procedure only due to my old hard calcified silicone?

Trianna
30 year old Polyurethane Silicone above muscle. 32aa now a large 32c. One would remove in one piece, due to calcifications and thin skin might have to leave some of the silicone if can't get it out around the calcification and would also put some stitches inside by my nipples to make sure my nipples stay in the right place while healing, said no lift req. 2nd opinion said try to remove them in one piece but might not be able to and would just flush the pocket out if silicone leaks.
