Capsular Contracture?

Hello Guys! It’s been a long time! …. Well a shortened version of my story! … I got a BA done 3 years ago, went from a 30A to a 30E/F. I had 415 cc overs natrelles. Its been 3 year to this month since surgery, with DR TRAYNOR. Its been a rocky road, I had some slight rippling, good healing scars and it took some time to get used to my implants. Within the last week my left breast has increasingly gone hard and swollen. and raised up my body in size. I am absolutely disheartened as I loved my results. I have moved away from home, I don’t live where my clinic is now but have made an appointment with Trainer on the 31st July in Newcastle. I’m very anxious, scared and distraught about my results. I have rang the nurse out of hours and had a it checked with the local GP who has also transferred me to a breast specialist. The out of hours nurse believes the side effects sound like capsular contracture. Can anyone who has had these issues before give me some advice or anyone who had re op and what their second results were like after capsular contracture. …. Feeling a bit on my own with this! Would be great to have some MYA girls advice x

are you feeling any better??, im so scared of getting this right now, my op is a week tomorrow. I haven’t felt anything but excitement and all of a sudden I feel sick with worry that I am going to get CC.
can this go away on its own? xxxx

Hi girls !!
Just a quick reply to my pictures the other week! and an update …
So I live down south and have had to come home for my appointment with Dr Traynor with regarding the swollen implant, some days its felt worse than others and I have felt its been going up and down.

After waiting to see Dr Trainer I felt nervous !! He observed me and told me it wasn’t capsular contracture but a fluid build up. So my body has built up fluid around the implant – which was a bit strange 3 years down the line. And no direct cause of it. After being a bit emotional, and confused. Dr Traynor did say it needed seeing to straight away with a new branded implant Mentor. At first Traynor was just going to operate on the problem implant, but pushing that I didn’t want two different branded implants. It was agreed that I am going to have a re-op on both implants. The implant chosen is 425 cc mentor, and again overs. Because I was a bit upset and it was a lot to take in as I didn’t know if I was going to have to have a re op or not I didn’t question anymore than this. But I am a bit worried 425 cc overs are going to be huge.? I am a 8-10 and 5’6.

So then I had more news, my case has been seen as an emergency case so I am going to have the re op next Wednesday! Which I was unprepared for but I would rather get it done sooner than later. Worried but relieved I’m on the right track to getting my boobies sorted! Just wondering has anyone else got pics of the 425 cc over implants or any experience of fluid build up?

REOP NEXT WEEEK !! EEEEEEKKKKKK

So glad your getting sorted Hun and it’s been Quick for you!! Iv got 400cc in and I’m a size 6 and 5 foot 1 so no I don’t think they will look silly on you! Hope it Gos well Hun and update when u have had it done! 🙂 xxx
