I had 360ccs under the muscle 4 years ago and have had pain ever since. It's a dull ache all over the boob, mainly on the lower half. Sometimes it flares up and is worse then other times. My surgeon/Dr said it's not typical of nerve pain and dont know why I'm in pain. It isnt capsular contracture yet feels firmer/tense on the painful side. I want to have an explant and lift. May explant fix this unusual pain??

Answer: Pain after surgery Dear jemmah,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Pain after implants 4 years ago If pain started after the implants, then it is possible you will feel better with the implants removed. If one side feels firmer and has the pain, then perhaps you do have a capsular contracture. Removing the implant will answer the question. As you are in pain, I might suggest just removing the implant, letting you recover and then doing the lift at a later date so you can evaluate clearly how you feel without the implants. Best wishes to you.
