I had mild congenital symmastia and had a BA that resulted in severe symmastia. I have had one revision done to change my implants (moderate to high profile, 385 CCs) and added Galaflex mesh. The revision was not successful. I am wondering if this condition is treatable with another revision or if this is a permanent, life-long look I know have. If treatable, do you suggest I remove implants?
