Augmentation 5 Years Post Explant - Will the capsules left behind a few years ago pose a problem, cosmetically speaking?

We know that most of the implant related capsule will be absorbed by the body in time. However, some parts may be still present if your surgeon will use the same submuscular plane to place new implants. There are multiple options to avoid this by placing implant into new pocket on top or beneath the muscle. In any case, whatever is left of old capsule should not affect shape of the breast. This is something you should discuss with your surgeon. Good luck

You need a thorough evaluation before considering putting in new implants. The remaining capsule is soft and will not pose a huge problem but the surgeon should be experienced. Also, you need a good evaluation to see if a breast lift would give you the fullness you want with minimal scarring. A virtual consultation might help and I'd be happy to do this.
Best of luck.

Since you did not post any photos, a virtual or in person consultation is needed specifically a virtual consultation. Most likely an ultrasound of the breast with a mammogram is required, looking for the effect of the capsule of any. Afterwards conceptually aSince you did not post any photos, a virtual or in person consultation is needed specifically a virtual consultation. Most likely a ultrasound of the breast with a mammogram is required, looking for the effect of the capsule of any. Afterwards, conceptually a combination called a composite augmentation would most likely be the better alternative. The composite augmentation is a combination of breast implants with fat grafting. Expect fees to range from $15,000-$20,000. Additionally, if the capsule appears as a potential issue a capsulectomy or partial capsulectomy of the areas in question is indicated. Again virtual consultation would add to this discussion.
