Capsules don’t dissolve, they have to be removed. Hope you’re healing well despite the capsules being left in

He did offer and I choose not to have the capsules removed, I wasn't having health issues and I didn't want any extra scaring. But, I have lost weight and I see a swelling difference with no other changes...so there is that!

What was your reason for having them removed. How is your recovery

This was my second set, after 17+ years my weight fluctuated and they was just too big and heavy. No health reasons, just felt they was very heavy. I feel great, recovery was just soreness but didn't last long. I've lost over 15lbs without trying and I don't have any swelling in my hands and feet anymore not sure why but I'll take it!

Just wanted to jump in to have you look into videos on Dr Jae Chun's website showing old capsules he's removed from patients still having problems years post explant. Capsules do not dissolve. They are scar tissue, if our bodies dissolved scar tissue, we would never heal from anything. I'm so glad you don't have any Bii symptoms, but if, at anytime in the future, you develop unknown health problems, that may be the culprit. I'm so happy you got your implants removed
