Patients who experience capsular contracture generally require breast revision surgery, especially those with a Baker grade of 3 or 4. This procedure generally consists of removing the existing implants and replacing them if desired or necessary, and excising some or all of the scar tissue capsule. Although the risk of complications is low, it is best to follow your surgeon’s postoperative instructions in order to properly recover and reduce any potential risks, including the recurrence of capsular contracture.
