I said I’d bring back a review if my revision surgery for capsular contracture went well, and I’m glad I can leave one The surgery was through the armpit incision, and I like a natural look, so I had Mentor Xtra 270 cc implants on both sides (before surgery, it was also through the armpit incision and 215 cc). Before the revision, the feel was one thing, but the upper fullness was so severe that when I wore tight clothes or a turtleneck, it looked like pecs? A bit like King Kong, so I only wore shirts.
Now it’s only been 10 days since surgery, but I can just wear nipple patches with a sleeveless top and cardigan, or even tight clothes, so it’s super comfortable!!!! Even considering the swelling, I’m satisfied with everything.
Before, the capsular contracture was so severe at grade 4 that it felt like one solid rock, but now it’s soooo much softer, my nipple position has risen a lot, and even though I have a pigeon chest, they brought the cleavage together more than before!
Honestly, I was most concerned about the scars, but they used the previous armpit incision site The fact that there’s no new scar is what I like most. My previous hospital was like a factory-style clinic, so after surgery I didn’t really talk with the director who operated on me except during follow-up consultations, but here the director checked all the drains too and kept checking frequently for any discomfort, so that was even better. People getting revision surgery especially worry a lot about contracture, and I really felt that they took careful care of pain management too.
When the feel softens more, I’ll bring a follow-up review~ I had the surgery at Fore Plastic Surgery. Since they specialize in armpit incisions, the director pays even closer attention to scars too.
