I’ve been told that I should have my Alloderm removed — what are the possible complications of this?

Asked By:Infisere in Calgary, AB

I received implants after a mastectomy back in 2016. For the past couple years I’ve been struggling with pain and inflammation that causes rashes and severe itching. After seeing many dermatologists, oncologist, and my surgeon, I went for an MRI. They found that the inflammation was due to the Alloderm. So I’ve been told I can have it removed, or deal with painful flare ups. I’m scared of how It’ll look. What are the complications and how different would it look if I had the Alloderm removed?
