Ultrasound or Laser Treatment for Capsular Contracture?

April 17, 2009
Asked By:rdv in california

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?
