About Side Effects Such as Capsular Contracture After Breast Augmentation Surgery

What is capsular contracture? It is a condition in which the tissue around the implant hardens and can occur due to various causes such as infection or bleeding.

Grace Plastic Surgery’s capsular contracture prevention system

Use of a single-use funnel │ Applying the “no-touch technique” so the implant does not touch the skin

Use of a single-use surgical drape from Yuhan-Kimberly │ A clean surgical environment

A regular nursing team that has worked together for more than 10 years │ Thorough infection control (continuously managing with the goal of a zero capsular contracture rate)

Bottoming Out

When the skin is thin and stretches easily

Choosing a large-sized implant

When the pectoralis major muscle is used frequently

Grace’s prevention methods

Applying the Apron Suture technique

Wearing a supportive bra & thorough post-operative education (building a system so even high-risk patients can undergo surgery with peace of mind)

Rippling

A condition in which wrinkles form in the skin after implant insertion

It can occur when the implant is too large or the skin is thin

But at Grace?

Through sufficient consultation, we guide patients from implant selection to the possibility of rippling (there are almost no actual rippling cases)

Ultrasound examination at Grace? Ultrasound examinations for checking implant rupture are provided for life Breast plastic surgery primary physician has experience interpreting implant rupture cases for Company H since 2021
