How to Diagnose Capsular Contracture? involves recognizing specific signs and symptoms that occur when the scar tissue around a breast implant tightens excessively. This condition can develop months or even years after breast augmentation. Symptoms include breast firmness, pain, distortion of the breast shape, and elevated or uneven breast positioning. Early stages may present mild symptoms, while more advanced cases can cause significant discomfort and visible deformity.
To diagnose capsular contracture, a physical examination by a qualified plastic surgeon is essential. The surgeon will assess the breast's firmness, symmetry, and any pain associated with the implant area. In some cases, imaging tests such as an MRI or ultrasound may be recommended to provide a clearer view of the capsule and implant condition.
Early diagnosis is critical to determining the severity of the condition and deciding on potential treatment options, which may include medication, massage, or surgical intervention.
