Mentor/Johnson and Johnson's Enhanced Advantage Warranty

If you think paying extra for Mentor's Enhanced Advantage Warranty will bring you peace of mind, think again. While Mentor's warranty covers the cost of implant replacement and a nominal fee for surgery, their customers are left high and dry (pardon the pun) with regard to fees they might incur for other complications they may incur, like a capsulotomy. What's a "capsulotomy"? I'm glad you asked. Capsular contracture is scar tissue that forms around a foreign object placed in the body. The warranty is also not guaranteed to cover any type of scar revision or other complications that could possibly arise.

I've visited 2 surgeons so far, one told me the price for replacement, scar revision, hospital and anesthesia would be $11,900. The other doc said it would be $5,300 plus hospital and anesthesia, which roughly amounts to another 2 grand, so roughly $7,300 total, almost five thousand less than the initial surgeon was going to charge me. Is it worth it?
