Capsular contracture and can't afford a revision. Options?

May 11, 2017
Asked By:humblegirl in Georgia, GA

3 years ago I got breast implants. I was assaulted a week post-op and I developed a capsular contracture in the breast that was injured. The surgeon reassured me that the breast was just taking longer to heal than the other one. Then he retired. I can't get a revision from him, but I can't afford another surgery even with financing. The contracture makes me think of the assault every day, I feel trapped. I don't want full surgery. I would like revision in just the one breast. Is there any help?
