Does Singulair help prevent CC?

My surgery is in less than a week and I have been doing so much daily reading regarding my procedure. I have come across a number of plastic surgeons who always prescribe Singulair a week prior to surgery and through the healing process in an effort to prevent capsular contraction. Does this really help? If so, why isn't it standard of care for all breast augmentation?
