For me, I feel like once I had been educated on all the risks (by my PS as well as my own research) it was a "simple" risk/benefit issue. Was I nervous about CC, rupture, re-operation, etc? Sure, and to a degree I still have those concerns. Each time I started to question myself, I looked at my "before" pics and just knew that I did NOT want to look like that anymore. So now, 3 days post-op, as much as I really dislike the necessary evils of massage, exercise, and laying on my boobs, I'm just trying to do everything my PS wants me to do in order to help reduce those risks.

Thanks for posting on RealSelf. Capsular contracture is definitely a possible (though not likely) complication of breast augmentation. Here's what some doctors say about a woman's likelihood of developing CC.
