Isn't it too invasive to explant through a peri-areolar incision?

Asked By:sophia362014 in Quebec, QC

I had saline 270cc under the muscle 13 years ago, through peri-areloar incision, i'm wondering if it's best to use the same incision for the explant or if it will cause too much damage to cut again the breast tissue? is there more risk to develop an inverted nipple or that it is pulled inside with this incision? Also, can the surgeon know before the surgery if a capsulectomy is needed without seeing it from inside? Thanks
