Revision needed - will adding mesh on the outside of the capsule prevent repeated bottoming out? (Photo)

I had a breast augmentation in November of 2025. I bottomed out at 12 weeks only on my right side. In April he did an Inframammary Fold Repair w sutures and removed stretched skin. After 10 weeks I bottomed out again. Now, I am scheduled for October 8th to have Galaflex mesh added to the tissue on the outside of the capsule. I’m now an additional $3000 in and I don’t have the confidence that this is going to fix it. My surgeon said my body failed to make a capsule on that side, but I have suspicions that the internal pocket was over dissected on that side to accommodate a slightly larger implant due to asymmetry. So my question is, will addeing mesh on the outside of the capsule fix the issue? Or will it eventually give out again if there is no internal pocket work done? I had Motiva 425 cc on left and 475 on right. I am 5’7” and 120 lbs.-47 years old.
