Get rid of the capsular contracture and have symmetry soft implants! I will document my whole journey to try and help those like me who didn't have much to go off of without many girls documenting their experience with this issue.

I haven't but I've definitely contemplate it. But everyone I just end up thinking the next revision will be better than the last..

It's a very hard thing, maybe they would like the next payment, I've had my right side done 7 times through capsular, and now I suffer with violently stretch skin, i suffer with electric shocks in my arms wrist and fingers, i had capel tunnell done then that came back with revenge, there isnt information anywhere to what damage it causes after inplant rejection. Some are lucky some arnt.I've had a blossom tree done on mine extending the branches going up towards my neck it's so pretty, not finished yet

So my capsular contracture is gone, it’s soft but my breast are not symmetrical and I have a dent/divot next to nipple. Unfortunately because of this I now don’t wear shirts without a bra because the asymmetry is so noticeable. :( Hoping he can fix it but I doubt without a full lift and scars can he get them even again.

Hi! Did you have surgery to fix the capsular contracture? I am almost 14 months post opt from a lift/augmentation and have contracture in both breasts, with one being a waterfall/snoopy.

It did make it softer if that the goal but I had a spot he scraped pretty aggressively is what another surgeon told me next to my nipple it's like indented I hate it. It is soft though, he did use pig skin.

No Show on Revision Consult

I had scheduled a zoom call with you on September 25th at 5pm to discuss revising my breast, but unfortunately, nobody contacted me. I really appreciated your team's excellent service when it came to the initial procedure, which cost me over 20k for one breast with capsular contraction. However, now that my breasts look completely different, with a dent next to my nipple due to the aggressive removal of scar tissue, I was expecting some kind of customer service. At the very least, a call to discuss my options would have been appreciated. Unfortunately, after the revision, I am left with one dent and one breast that is significantly higher than the other.
