Capsular Contracture

Right after breast augmentation with breast implants, extreme scar tissue may form about the breast implant which triggers the breast implants to harden (related to what a contracted muscle feels like). The induce of capsular contracture is not identified but it is the most common complication with breast augmentation surgical treatment. There are various grades of capsular contracture from gentle to severe. The fee of capsular contracture has decreased from 20-30 yrs ago when all breast implants ended up put above the muscle (sub-glandular). By inserting the breast implants down below the muscle (sub-muscular), the fee of capsular contracture has considerably decreased. Also, it is claimed the therapeutic massage aids lessen the prospect of capsular contracture. When a affected individual is commencing to get breast hardness (capsular contracture), they may be put on a treatment known as Accolate. This is an asthma treatment that has demonstrated to enhance capsular contracture in clients at an early phase. When a affected individual develops severe capsular contracture, the remedy would be to return to the functioning place and carry out a capsulectomy on the affected individual. There is a prospect that the capsular contracture may return after the revisionary breast surgical treatment.

The Surgical Procedure

For correction of capsular contracture, the process can take from two to three hrs, dependent on the severity and complexity of the encapsulation. Open up capsulotomy, a surgical corrective process, will involve removing the scar tissue encapsulating the implant, releasing the tension about the implant brought on by capsular contracture. Board Licensed Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Pousti normally takes his time in the functioning place to make certain that he does what he can to obtain the patient’s final results.
