Should I consider having my capsules removed?

Asked By:Bala3785 in George Town, Bs

Hey, I had my saline implants removed in office and have healed very well…. I have been researching fat transfer and really looking into it. On one of the comments I saw where a women said she had bia-clal (her capsules tested pos) I had a very light scapular contracture on my right side, which the doctor thought was fine to leave as well as my left side which was very thin tissue… Do any of you think I should have them removed? I wasn’t aware that cancer could be a concern with capsules?
