Will Fibrous Tissue Affect Future Plastic Surgeries?

I had breast augmentation done this past Monday.

I asked him if this fibrous tissue will contribute to a capsular contracture he didn't think it would. I would like to have a lower body makeover but I wonder now does fibrous tissue runs though my whole body and it would be riskier for me to have any future surgeries.

Perhaps he is indeed slightly worried that a... more

Fibrocystic Tissue Only in Your Breasts

Fibrocystic Breast Tissue is a common condition in women and can make a Sub-Glandular Breast Augmentation  a more time consuming, but not necessarily a more tiring surgical procedure.
