Should you get a lift at the time of explant or wait 6 months then lift?

lma123
4 different consults: 1. Do implant removal under local with no drains then lift at a later time. 2. Go under and do explant, leaving capsules, with drains, and lift later. 3. Capsules must come out. Do capsulectomy then do a lift 6 months later. (this DR sited risk of infection as a reason to wait on the lift) 4. Do Capsulectomy and lift at the same time. This makes it really hard to pick a DR because they all say different things. I'm willing to travel to surrounding states of FL.
