Capsulectomy with implant exchange.

Well fast foward from my last post. Yesterday I underwent anither surgery to correct the problems I've had with my right breast. It never did "drop" into place. On top of that I developed a contracture. I had a capulectomy and implant exchange. Dr. Ennis said the muscle was too tight and wouldn't allow the implant to fall into place. As you can see from my new photos the new implant is in prefect position. I'm swollen of course, but I'm so happy with the results. I did have to pay for anesthesia and operating room fees totaling $1450. The surgeon waived his fees and Mentor covered the cost of the new implant. I knew from week 3 I would need another surgery. It's the chance you take though. A know possible complication.

Well, I'm having a hard time with my right breast. My left implant dropped to weeks ago, but my right is still high. I'm hoping I won't need a revision. Only time will tell. I started using the silicone strips for the scars last week, but I had to stop putting them around my nipples. They were getting red and sore. I started using the band over my right breast today holong to help the implant settle. Fingers crossed!

I just got cleared to bath in the tub, which I've missed! Also to swim and get back on my eliptical. Still no weight lifting for another two weeks or so. As you can see the implants are still high and the superior aspect of my pectoral muscle is still inflammed. Once the implants settle and the inflammation goes away my nipples will point slightly upwards. Every day they change. Dr. Ennis' nurse removed a few sutures around my nipple that didn't fully dissolve. I bruised my right breast by massaging a little too hard. It's okay that I did so, because the capsule on the right is getting a little firm. Lord knows I do want it to contract. My left breast is soft. I'm so pleased with the results so far. I will start my incision ointment and silicone strips next week to start minimizing the scars. I will do this for an entire year. I plan on continuing my updates up until that point for others to read and learn from :)
