Worried about capsular contracture in my 13 year old implants. How can I try and stop it advancing?

If you have just a capsular contracture and nothing else is wrong after seeing your plastic surgeon and your primary care doctor and reviewing your imaging studies and it is determined to be a capsular contracture than it is important to realize that a capsular contracture is not harmful to your health so waiting will not jeopardize your health.

Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done once a capsule establishes itself to prevent it from getting firmer or from contracting more.

Capsular contracture is a complication that can occur after breast augmentation surgery, when the scar tissue around a breast implant tightens and hardens: ExplanationThe body forms a thin, pliable, and translucent capsule of scar tissue around a breast implant as a normal response to the foreign object. However, in capsular contracture, the capsule thickens and tightens, squeezing the implant and causing the breast to feel hard and painful, and look abnormal. SeverityCapsular contracture can range in severity from mild to severe. The Baker Scale is used to grade the severity of capsular contracture: Grade I: No contracture or asymptomatic Grade II: Mild contracture that is painless and almost undetectable Grade III: Moderate contracture with some firmness and discomfort Grade IV: Severe contracture that is painful and can be diagnosed by observation alone PrevalenceAbout one in six women who have breast augmentation surgery will experience some degree of capsular contracture. CauseCapsular contracture is caused by anything that leads to inflammation of the capsule. TreatmentPlastic surgeons can perform breast augmentation revision procedures to treat capsular contracture.

Hi there,
You can try singulair (allergy pill) and vitamin e (1000 units) daily to help slow the CC from happening. People respond to it differently and it isn't a guaranteed fix but it can help. I would also start massaging that side, plenty of youtube videos on implant massage.
Also, check with your implant company and the type of warranty you have on the implants, some warranties will cover cap con.
All the best,
