Capsular contracture always returns after implant exchange - is there an expert or technique I should seek out?

June 27, 2023
Asked By:AEW1983 in Cleveland, Ohio

I got implants and had capsular contracture. Over the course of a decade I’ve had the implants replaced three times, and every time the capsular contracture returns. If I have them exchanged again, is there an expert or technique I should seek out? My surgeon is very skilled and I understand it’s not his fault. Before the implants, I did have a breast left. Thank you.
