Capsular contracture… Started by: Kate

Hi Kate and Becca, try not to panic. I’ve heard a lot of stories about one boob being more problematic than the other in terms of pain/swelling etc It could also be firmer if you had less breast tissue there before.. my surgeon told me at my 2 week check up that my right would feel softer than my left because I had more tissue there to begin with. Becca you sound like you have what I’m experiencing at the moment (and from what I’ve read it seems normal – fingers crossed) as I’m also getting a tense/pulling sensation in one boob when I breathe deeply (again my left… maybe due to less tissue so takes longer to settle?)It’s really uncomfortable but from what I’ve seen I think it’s just the implant taking longer to settle (I’m 24dpo) xx.
