Age 41. 126lbs. 5ft4. 300cc overs for 13 years. 2 breastfed children since implants placed. I am due to explant, but I am nervous of the outcome. I have grade 2 capsular contracture and thinner skin. Implants are vpalpable both sides. I do not wish for a lift or any further surgeries. Is there any chance they may spring back to an extent?
