Sometimes, it’s safer to keep breast implant capsules in place. For example, if the capsules have become soft and thin, your body will naturally absorb them over time.
Since thick and hardened breast capsules can be a health risk, it’s best to remove them with a full capsulectomy, also known as en bloc removal. This technique involves the total removal of the breast capsule and implant as one comprehensive unit. It allows for minimal contamination of adjacent breast tissue and is ideal for moderate to severe cases of capsular contracture.
