Capsular Contracture….so confused

I’m so confused, if you look at the rates on the offical FDA website they qoute 13% with allergan and that is the bad type never mind mild contracture! I’m confused though caus read girls on here saying they have been told 1%.

What is the real rate?! Anyone know? 13% is too high for me!

Thanks

I wouldn’t be suprised Hunn it is quite common xx

That would mean 13% have to be re-operated on?! I wonder why some girls being told 1% by MYA?

this is really bad because they dont give you that figure, and its worrying 😯

Yeh I know that’s why I was confused, if FDA quote 13% can’t see it would be any less and definately not 1%!! x

this really scares me lol how did you see this what web site ?

It’s too late for me now I’m 4 weeks post op! x

Aw sorry Khanni just considering it. I have my appointment today so going to ask for details. It is the FDA website, the official government facts and figures about approved implants. Just put FDA and allergan into google xx

When would you tend to get it? Is it a certain time frame?

Can’t find this at all on the fda site, but did notice that most of their studies were carried out pre 2000

Must say the fact that they only approve implants when used on women over 22 years of age is a bit or a worry, wonder why that is??
