Can breast capsulectomy surgery be prevented?

This is always a risk but there are certain things you can do to reduce the risk. These are:

  • Post-surgery massage. It is a good idea to massage the breasts but it is only recommended for those women who have had smooth implants. See the ‘breast implant’ section ( ) on the different types of implants.
  • Wear a compression bra. This works well especially if combined with compression exercises.
  • Take Vitamin E (orally). This vitamin improves the skin and so may do the same with scar tissue.
  • Choose textured implants which prevent hard capsules from forming.
  • Take a specific nutritional supplement but check with your surgeon first.

Take antibiotics before dental surgery to reduce the risk of infections.
