Asked By:Louise3456 in Ghan, Northern Territory, Australia

Hi I had a unilateral capsulectomy on my right side after having bad capsule contracture on this side. I am now 5 days post op. Realise its early days! But the right side is now much lower and more saggy and nipple sits much lower. I'm worried this is on Going to get worse in time as the implants 'drops'. They are silicone under muscle and left one has been in 3 years. Any advice?
