Best Ways Pre and Post Surgery to Avoid Capsular Contracture?

Miller
can a doctor take to prevent capsular contraction with a high risk patient for cc? (I have had several cc.) Are there doctors who have a very low incident rate of cc due to the way they medically treat the patient before, during and after surgery? I am considering one last try at this, but am very unsure. Currently have no implants in to allow my body to heal. I have very little of my own breast tissue and my chest is caved in from 20+ years of implant use.
