Capsular Contracture Correction in Malaysia
When firmness and discomfort are not "normal"
Breast implants should feel soft and comfortable. When the breast becomes hard, tight, painful, or visibly distorted, it may be due to capsular contracture, a known but treatable implant complication. Capsular contracture correction in Malaysia focuses on relieving discomfort, restoring breast shape, and addressing the underlying cause safely and thoroughly. At Dr. Soma Plastic Surgery, capsular contracture is managed with careful assessment, evidence-based surgical planning, and honest discussion about long-term outcomes.
Hardness after breast implants is not something you should ignore.
What is capsular contracture?
After breast implant surgery, the body naturally forms a thin layer of scar tissue (capsule) around the implant. This is normal. Capsular contracture occurs when this capsule: thickens, tightens, hardens. This causes the breast to feel firm, painful, or look distorted.
