Hello, I will be satisfied with my body with very small breasts and want this to be my final surgery on my breasts. My incision was on the lower half of my areola. I do not want to lose more sensation. I already lost most on one breast. I was originally a 34A. I am currently a 34B (full). My implants are filled with 240 CCs. My areolas hang low at 23 cm and 22 cm. I am 52 years old and have 2 children and am beginning menopause.

Answer: Removal of capsules If there is a capsular contracture it is usually a good idea to remove the capsule. Also, your nipples are a little bit lower and it is possible you may want a breast lift in the future. To maximize the circulation to the nipple and prevent complications, it would definitely be better to remove the capsule because this will allow new pathways of blood flow to develop to the area of the nipple. You probably will not lose additional sensation, but there is never a guarantee of that.

Answer: Capsule If the capsule is hard or calcified, it will need to be removed. If you have minimal tissue, normal thin capsules are usually left to minimize the risks of bleeding and numbness. Your surgeon will the be the one to let you know if the capsules need to be removed.
