Implant hardening and displaced after breastfeeding - am I at risk for contracture?

You may have developed a capsule, but it could be treated with antibiotics and even external ultrasound. The ultrasound will not harm your milk or baby. When you can, go back to your surgeon and be checked.

Thanks for your question. Although an in-person exam is required to make a diagnosis, it certainly sounds like you have capsular contracture present. In these cases the implants need to be removed along with the hard capsular contracture tissue. This is a normal complication that unfortunately affects a small amount of patients. I suggest you speak with your surgeon or seek out a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Take care.
