Capsular contracture or bad placement? What is my best option? (photos)

SS1234
I got a lift and silicone implants redone in 2020. The right side was high. Massage was recommended but w/ no effect. 3 months after surgery I got pregnant and couldn’t fix the issue. I’m done nursing but want to get pregnant in 4 months. Thus far my options are, take out completely & fix later(I scar horribly so I don’t want to go that) wait until after my next pregnancy (it is so uncomfortable & obvious) and physical therapy and hope for the best. I saw 1 side can be repositioned. PH!
