Asked By:BarbieOrtiz in Houston, TX

I am 2months 2weeks post op with under the muscle high profile saline implants (445 cc). I am a little concerned that I may be developing capsular contracture on my right breast. My left one has fully dropped. They both feel the same one is just a little high and every now and then I feel a tingling and burning sensation with numbness. Should I be worried?
