Any Chance of Capsular Contracture Getting Better on Its Own?

November 28, 2011
Asked By:me in ny in Holtsville, New York

I was told today I have capsular contracture grade 2 with silicone implants. My dr put me on 400-600mg of motrion 3 times a day and to do massages till I go back to see him in 3 weeks. He Said health ins usually covers taken the implant out so then I'd pay out of pocket for removing the scar tissue and to put the implant back in. Is it ok to use the same implant? Does ins ever actually cover that? And does cc ever get better without surgery? I'd appreciate any advice! Thank you so much!
