Strattice Q&A

I had developed Capsular contracture even after replacing new implants, strattice and scar removed after my surgery 3 years ago. Can the strattice be removed and replace with new sets of implants. My left breast keep getting capsular twice.

I got my implants replaced because it had been 16 years. My right breast had a minor capsule contraction. My doctor suggested that I get an internal bra & not do a lift because my nipples were high enough. I left surgery & my drain fell out under my right breast. They had to put me under again & put the drain back in. Now when I look at my breasts I feel like the internal bra didn't work on my right breast. The left one is higher & has more fullness up top. Do you see what I am seeing?

I recently had a capsulectomy & implant exchange. I went from OTM to UTM and 5 months later I got capsular contracture again. I would like to get strattice to help prevent cap con but I worry about infection. Is Strattice relatively safe or does it have a high rate of infection? Should the entire implant be covered or just a portion of the implant? I have 3 autoimmune diseases hashimotos, perniciousanemia & autoimmune metaplastic gastritis if that matters

I've had way too many problems with submuscular implants and I want to switch back to my original over the muscle implants. I need strattice though for support, but don't know if that's possible?

Will they still look the same over time is should it be used on both breasts?

Hello, I've have multiple revisions in the past. 2 previous surgeries with a device called pocket protector made of same material as gore-Tex expanded poly tetra Fluor ethylene that was supposed to prevent capsule contracture from recurring. I'm running out of options and was wondering if stattice is a good option for me or would make a significant difference in my chances of recurrence. It's been 8 years since my last surgery which I had a complete capsulectomy and new silicone implants.

I have 10yr saline, under muscle(325ccs)implants. 5'1, 99lbs, AA before surgery. Shortly after surgery they began to move into my armpits and its gotten worse over the yrs. New PS says go with smaller silicone implants and use strattice. Do you all agree? It's quite expensive and I dont want any regrets. How long is drain necessary with strattice? Also, I want a little smaller, but not too much. Is it safe to go close to the original size? 

Hello Doctors. What is your opinion on the use of Alloderm or Strattice? What are the pros and cons of each product? And its rejection rates when compared to each other?

I am a 32DDD with 600cc high pro cohesives. My left pocket has grooves in it (I can feel where slices were cut in capsule and it's left visual grooves) from capsulotomy for cc grade 2/3. My right implant now has at least a grade 2 contracture. This is the second cc of right side; first was a grade 4. 5'9 125 very small frame. What are the average costs of a revision dual capsulectomy with new implants and strattice? Other advice?
