Question: In 2000, I got breast implants (smooth, round, submuscular). I was happy with them until a few years later they became hard and felt unnatural. I had developed capsular contraction! My breasts looked normal, but felt hard. I think the CC was contributed to breast feeding and also having mastitis (milk duct infection) in one of my breasts. After a few more years of debating whether or not to have the capsulectomy/otomy (fear of the initial painful recovery), I finally scheduled the surgery to rectify the problem. To my horror, when I woke up from surgery, my implants had been removed! The surgeon said I needed to wait 3-6 mos. before replacing the implants. He found breast milk in the left breast capsule and thought I might have an infection. The culture came back negative for infection, but he still wants me to wait at least 3 mos. For a naturally very flat chested woman who has had implants for 7 years, and then without her consent, has them removed, I was very
devastated and depressed about the situation. I know my body and if I had an infection I would know. He should not have removed my implants without my consent!
Since he's refusing to replace my implants for several months, I'm asking you for your expert advice...do I really need to wait? I feel perfectly fine, healthy, no pain, no infection and I want to have implants again. Can you help me?
