If you are really trying to avoid surgery, why not give the Aspen treatments a try? I would make sure that they offer some kind of guarantee so if it doesn't improve your situation, you haven't wasted your money. Best of luck, Dr. Nazarian
Hello,If you really have Grade II CC (NO visible difference between breasts, but one is firmer), and it's been less than 6 months since surgery, you have about a 20% chance of resolving spontaneously. All of these non-surgical treatments for CC make no greater claim. However, if you have a visible difference in your breasts and/or its past 6 months from your surgery, your chances of spontaneous resolution are small to none, and no non-surgical treatment will be effective.Best of luck!
As its not proven but they have great pictures, if you have a contracture and am doing everything to avoid surgery, ASPEN can certainly be tried. But if you were my patient, my suggestion will be to get some kind of warranty so if it doesn't work with the recommended treatments, that you're not out 100%. I hate paying for something that doesn't work. If the provider is confident in the technology, a warranty should easily be offered. This could entail a partial refund or additional treatments for no additional cost. Anything short of that would make me stay away and look for some other solution.

Yes, you do need new implants. This is because one of the main reasons of developing cc is a mild, smoldering bacterial contamination of the implants, and so any revision needs brand new implants to minimize the chance of recurrence. If you have new implants, all 3 manufacturers...

It is extremely unlikely that your headaches and fatigue are caused by your capsular contracture. It would be best for you consult with your primary care physician regarding the headaches and fatigue. Good luck
