Information on Use of Strattice for Breast Revision?

TB in Texas
I am four months post-op and have capsular contracture. I was feeling pain and tightening in my right breast from six to eight weeks post-op. My surgeon said he would do the revision using strattice. I would like to how successful the surgery is in stopping the recurrence of this complication using this material. Also, is the down time as long as with the initial implant surgery. I'm a little apprehensive and in some discomfort. Thank you in advance for your responses.
