Hello Heather
I had the same problem, had mastectomy and then finished chemo last Feb and rads in the April, my implant had capsulated and felt very hard and uncomfortable, to be honest, it never felt right, maybe this was because of the continuining treatments at the time and the fact that the skin was being stretched over time with the saline port, the surgeon advised me to wait a few months to see if it would eventually settle, on returning last July he advised me that it would be best to remove it and put another one in, i had this procedure done in Nov andI have to say this one is much better it feels a lot softer, and he is pleased with the result.
Obviously as we know it's never going to be the same as are other natural breast, this one sits higher on my chest; I now have the option of having an uplift on the other side and the nipple repositioned, i am thinking seriously about this procedure, I'am sure you will feel much more comfortable and will be happy with he outcome, and it will be quicker to heal xx
