Asked By:idontknow125

Considering a surgery to release the capsule as one of my breasts did not fully drop more than a year post augmentation. Before I book another consult, I just wanted general info about the recovery of a release of the breast capsule ( under muscle, breast fold incision) I am very mobile at my job and I don't know how invasive this procedure is (same as breast aug? 6 weeks limited movement?)
