Various methods have been used to try to prevent or to reduce the rate of capsule contracture following breast augmentation. Methods commonly used to prevent contracture that have shown some success include the use of low-dose steroids in the implant pocket, antibiotics, implant manipulation with smooth-shelled saline implants, textured implants, and placing the implant in the submuscular position. An excellent means of treating capsule contracture is with partial or total capsulectomy followed by placement of a textured saline implant on the opposite side of the pectoralis major muscle, creating a new implant pocket.
