I'm almost 12 month post op and I was diagnosed with capsule contactor. My breast look the same, but one of my breasts is firmer. I believe I'm a grade 2. My surgeon tried on two different occasions to break the scar tissue in the office. Is this recommended? Also if I do have to have surgery is it high risk to remove the scar tissue and be exchanged with implants a cup size bigger? I'm 4'11 110Ibs and I currently have 350ccs.
