So I had a B/A done almost 6 months ago and at 3 months developed capsular contracture on left breast. I have been on accolate for 2 months and now just recently my right side is starting the same thing. Is there such a thing as laser treatment for helping capsular contracture? I read there was this treatment for capsular contracture with ultrasound through a facility called Aspen Rehabilation?

Answer: Laser and ultrasound of no probable benefit in capsular contracture There are a variety of modalities that have been claimed to be beneficial for the management of capsular contracture but few have proven to be effective.

Answer: No To date there are no true and tested ways to prevent or relax the capsular contracture. Contrary to what you hear it is not scar tissue! The capsule is it's own, 4 layer entitiy that has the ability to contract. Early and daily massage can help the process, but there are no proven methods to treat this.
