You can also sit down and discuss your questions and concerns with the anesthesiologist involved in your case. There is more blood loss involved. However, a plastic surgeon who has performed many capsulectomies and works well with the other members of the surgical team in the operating room knows about minimizing blood loss. In addition, blood vessels are cauterized during the procedure.

There is the risk of the plastic surgeon cutting more tissue than is absolutely necessary beyond your implants and scar capsules. However, a plastic surgeon who has performed many capsulectomies and performs them routinely with good technical ability will be careful to give you a good surgical result, medically and cosmetically. The most extreme reaction is nipple death due to poor circulation. A well-trained, qualified plastic surgeon will take all precautions to avoid this occurrence. At the same time, there is a very good chance that you may regain sensation in your nipples and areolae once your breast implants and scar capsules are removed.
