Can scar tissue removal and breast implant revision be combined or should I separate the two for healing purposes?

Asked By:nicoletaylor1228 in Toms River, New Jersey

I have silicone implants since 2011 I've been experiencing pain in one of my breasts I feel hardness when I touch it. I googled scar tissue I'm almost certain I have it I wanted to have my breasts redone anyway I have a lot of rippling that I've been unhappy with for years I'm insecure. I am fearing that in order to have the scar tissue removed I will have to walk around without implants for months. Can it be removed the same day and; new implants be put in right away?
