Lift with my total capsulectomy explant? (photos)

January 14, 2020
Asked By:surgeryregretgirl in Seattle, WA

I have 11yo 400cc textured Allergan high profile recall implants submuscular. CC grade 2 in left breast with pain, mass in right breast. Due to my CC and Bia-Alcl risk I have decided on explant with total capsulectomy (en bloc if possible) without implant replacement. Had two benelli lifts on right side, one at time of aug and second a year later. The right areola is still large, and skin is stretched. I wonder if a third lift can even be attempted due to skin quality, and if it is necessary.
