Capsular contracture is a condition that can occur after breast augmentation, characterized by the hardening of the capsule around the implant. Dr. Casian Monaco, MD, based in New York City’s Upper East Side, offers an in-depth understanding and advanced treatment options for this condition.

The Phenomenon of Capsular Contracture in Breast Implant Patients

When a breast implant is placed, the body naturally forms a scar tissue capsule around it. Capsular contracture happens when this capsule tightens or thickens, often leading to discomfort and aesthetic concerns. This condition is classified into different grades, ranging from mild firmness to severe hardening that can distort the shape of the breast and cause pain.

Advanced Treatment Options for Capsular Contracture in New York City

Treatment for capsular contracture varies depending on its severity. Dr. Monaco utilizes the latest techniques to address this condition effectively. Options may include:

  • Capsulectomy: Surgical removal of the scar tissue capsule, which can be followed by replacing the breast implant.
  • Capsulotomy: A procedure where the capsule is surgically released to alleviate tightness without removing the entire capsule.
  • Medication and Non-Surgical Approaches: In some cases, medications or non-invasive therapies can be used to manage mild cases of capsular contracture.

Preventing Capsular Contracture: Proactive Measures in Breast Augmentation

While capsular contracture can’t always be predicted or prevented, there are measures to minimize the risk. These include choosing the right type of implant, precise surgical techniques, and post-operative care. Dr. Monaco emphasizes the importance of following tailored post-surgery guidelines to ensure the best possible outcomes for his patients in New York City.
