Tightening of the scar tissue capsule around implants is referred to as capsular contracture. When this occurs, the implants will feel very firm and often shift upward, creating a very unnatural appearance. This patient’s surgery required a significant release of the capsule and repositioning and replacing her silicone implants.

This patient had a significant asymmetry of breast development. The left breast is much larger and somewhat lower than the right. The breast fold on the right is also significantly higher than the left. Breast augmentation required lowering of the right breast crease (inframammary fold) and placement of a larger implant on the right to improve the asymmetry.
