29 Year Old, Previous BBL, Wanting More with Butt Implants

Hi ladies!

So I have decided to go ahead and schedule the capsular contracture removal around my right butt implant with Dr. Grawe in October.

She is still the best PS for my butt implants and I trust her to fix me. I love how she uses her Snapchat to teach everyone more about PS and she is very knowledgeable/gives amazing results . So I'm sticking with my gut instinct and going back to Ohio:)

I have been patiently waiting and watching this 1 side with the hopes that it would not need a revision, but I am super OCD about symmetry and it's not where I want it to be.

It does look more even than it was after my hematoma issues, but it still has a contracted look and is rock hard in certain areas where the drains were placed during the surgery I had in Miami to remove the excessive amount of fluid.

My new surgery is scheduled for late October. I would have gotten it done sooner but I need to recover from a breast revision surgery and thigh lift that I just had done in June. I want to give my body a bit more time to heal before going under the knife again.
I hope this will be my last cosmetic procedure for awhile, at least for another few years.
Anyway, my implants are doing great otherwise and I can make them look symmetrical when I wear a compression garment so that's the good news :)

I have been sitting down on the implants constantly since June and they feel normal.
I'm still unable to have sex "[RS bleep]"
And I am now using a special donut BBL pillow when I drive so I won't hurt my thighs or butt when I'm driving.
I'm always more careful with my body now and I am hopeful this revision will turn out great and healing will be a lot easier than the first time.

I will keep y'all posted as my surgery date gets closer.
Happy healing!!!

So after taking some pics of my bottom, I've noticed that the left side which has never had any complications looks lower and seems like it needs to be lifted to appear more aesthetically pleasing.

And ironically The right side that has a capsular contracture actually looks more lifted and firm.

So now if I do have revision surgery to fix the CC will the implant settle lower than i want it to once healed?

Maybe I should just wait to get a new surgery altogether instead of having revsion surgery and than later on needing to replace my future saggy implants.

Perhaps the oval size implants would have fit my buttocks better than the rounds?
Idk, but I'm still confused:/
What do y'all think???

I'm updating today to say that I think my hematoma issues have finally resolved. I had an ultrasound almost 3 weeks ago which showed I still had a small amount of fluid around my right implant.
I had the PS here in Texas drain it, turned out it was 80ccs of dark red/purple looking hematoma blood :/

I have been on bedrest for the past few weeks again and wearing compression garments 24hr/day. Laying on my stomach and not sitting once again.

Anyway, at my last PS visit the surgeon here in Texas said he thinks I have a Capsular Contracture now on the right implant :((((

The right side is harder, tighter and tender, so those are all signs of a capsular contracture. And the trauma, hematoma issues can all trigger forming this type of complication.

I'm mentally, physically and emotionally drained from all of the problems, expenses and bedrest I have been dealing with. I feel depressed, frustrated and confused on what my next steps will entail.

I have emailed Dr. Grawe and she said she can perform a capsulectomy to remove the scar tissue (capsular contracture) which should fix the issue.
But I am going to have to pay 2k surgeon fee and 2k anesthesia cost totalling another $ 4,000.
Does anyone know if insurance will cover the hospital/anesthesia fee?

Honestly, I can't afford to spend that much right now, and I'm worried the scar tissue will get worse. I have money tied up with another surgery center in Miami when I was supposed to have my Breast revision surgery, but I don't know if they will refund me my money since I had already rescheduled once after signing final paperwork and then being admitted to the hospital for my butt implant hematoma issue back in February.

I don't know if I even have the energy to undergo another butt surgery/recovery again so soon knowing I won't be able to sit, drive or have a normal life for yet another 3 months or longer.
I mean I waited 3 whole months after my butt implant surgery before having sex, sitting or driving the 1st time around.
I was committed to healing and became a hermit in order to have a complication free recovery, but it seems as though that was not enough time.
And then my unfortunate fall made everything spiral downhill. Why am I having such bad luck???

I feel like the hematoma issues were bad enough, but now I have CC too. I can't help but think what happens if I undergo this revision surgery, more money invested and all the recovery needed after, and then still wind up with more issues or another capsular contracture???

Sorry for venting so much, but I'm feeling so confused and hopeless right now and realself is the only place I can share freely and actually have people understand.

My husband doesn't understand, but has been trying to be sympathetic to my distress, and I have zero friends so this is my only real outlet.

I have attached a picture showing how my butt currently looks. I will add more in a standing position later today.
