Re: What can you do about your breasts being rock hard due to scar tissue.

[Guest guest]

The answer to those rock hard breasts is to get the implants out, along

with a total capsulectomy. A total capsulectomy goes in and takes out

all of the scar tissue, from all sides of the implant. You are left

with your own breast tissue, with no residual garbage from the

experience of implants. That rock hard tissue is called having capsular

contracture, by the way. It is a very common problem, which the

plastic surgeons have not figured out how to prevent fully, I believe.

If you are determined to keep your implants, there really isn't

anything that you can do, except to keep massaging them, but even then,

the scar tissue can keep coming back. Have you ever heard the story of

, the talk show host from years ago? She had several sets

of implants that always became rock hard. She eventually just had to

get rid of the implants, because they were never soft and became

painful to her. I believe she suffered from numbness in her breasts as

a result of so many implant surgeries.

But, if the implants are removed properly, you should be able to have

sensation (I had Baker IV capsular contractures and had a total

capsulectomy. I still have sensations, although somewhat diminished,

in both breasts.)

How is your health? Have you had any of the issues we listed on our

webpage?
