Capsular contracture is a common reason for women to consider Implant Removal Surgery.  After Breast Augmentation with implants, the body’s natural response is to produce a thin layer of scar tissue around the implant that helps keep the implant in place and prevents it from slipping around.  This response is normal, but in a small number of cases, the body forms a thick, tight layer of scar tissue around the implant which can cause pain and distortion of the implant and breast tissue.  There are a number of non-surgical treatments for capsular contracture that Dr. Moon and Dr. Scurci can recommend, but the most definitive is Breast Implant Removal Surgery.
