I have Mentor Siltex silicone implants exchanged from Mentor smooth 23 years ago. No CC this time. Should I stay with textured?

Asked By:Realreal98 in Scottsdale, Arizona

I have had no capsular contraction since but feel it is time to do an exchange. Should I stay with Siltex given my history of CC with the first set of smooth? I am a 69 year old female in excellent health. I’m afraid to go back to smooth if it would be increase my chances of getting CC. Does it really make a difference using either textured ir smooth implants as far as likelihood of contraction? My implants are on top of the muscle and I prefer them that way.
