How can you tell the difference between capsule contracture and an under-dissected pocket?

Asked By:leilacake in Sanger, California

8 months ago i had revision breast augmentation under the muscle using galaflex. several years ago i had my breast implants removed due to grade iv cc bilaterally. Now this time, the implants are high and firm and have been since day 1. They have not dropped at all so it looks similar to how it looked when there was cap con. To me, it seems that either the galaflex is holding up the implants and/or the pocket was underdissected, trapping them both exactly where they were placed. Any advice?
