Implant removal due to capsular contracture after 11 years - what can I expect to be left with? (photos)

January 19, 2023
Asked By:Chiswick22 in Scotland, United Kingdom

Hello! After 11 years of having breast implants (at age 23) I need them removed due to capsular contracture. NHS will remove them for me as I wouldn’t be able to afford to go private anymore, but they remove not replace, I’m ok with this. As NHS surgeons are not usually experienced in plastic surgery, please can anyone give me an idea of what I’ll be left with? Size before 30AA cone shaped with no lower pole fullness/crease. Implants 450cc low profile silicone over muscle - size 32E
