Answer: Capsular contracture? I encourage you to visit with your surgeon for an evaluation. At nine months post op you are seeing your final results and it is unlikely that the implant will descend without intervention. Your surgeon can help you rule out capsular contracture. I have included a video that I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Capsular Contracture Thank you for your question. Without an in-person evaluation and only one photo, it can be difficult to determine if this is a case of capsular contracture. Pre-operative photos would also be helpful to differentiate; however, the implants appear to be high at this time. If this is a recent procedure, a bandeau can be of assistance. I recommend you meet with your plastic surgeon for further evaluation and to discuss your concerns.

Answer: It's hard to tell with only one picture If you feel the implant hard and difficult to move, you probably have a capsular contracture.If the implant is soft and mobile it is most probably a high riding implant. Regards, Dr. Galaz
