Capsule contracture is a common complication of augmentation mammoplasty with prosthesis implantation, which may occur at any time after operation. Generally speaking, a capsule is formed around the prosthesis after breast augmentation.

Many women use breast augmentation to reshape their beautiful figure. Although all kinds of breast augmentation have good histocompatibility, they are foreign bodies to the human body after all. After the prosthesis is implanted into the human body, as a normal reaction of the body, a fibrous capsule may be formed around the prosthesis, but the degree is different. In light cases, only a thin fibrous tissue membrane is formed, and no adverse reactions will occur. In severe cases, capsular contracture will occur, causing local discomfort, breast sclerosis, breast deformation and prosthesis displacement. According to related literature, the incidence of capsular contracture is 10% ~ 40%, which usually occurs within 1 year after operation. Once the contracture capsule of the prosthesis is formed, it is necessary to cut or cut the contracture capsule again and implant the prosthesis again for breast augmentation.
