What I am wondering is this: capsular contracture can happen whether I remove it or not. Then, if I leave it alone, there is a chance nothing will go wrong, so would removing it just create more problems? [Clinic A] also told me not to keep worrying about something that has not happened and to leave it alone, saying that removing it does not guarantee that capsular contracture will not occur. But when I said another hospital told me to remove it quickly, they said I seem like the type who could be deceived and charged an enormous amount lol. I am so deliberating that I cannot do anything all day T_T.

They are kind and confident during consultation, but sensitive about recording? Please, do not even look back—run away! If they make you sign an absurdly large number of consent forms before surgery, it means they are not confident in the…
