Whenever anything is inserted into the human body, the body will form a thin layer of scar tissue around it. This happens with breast implants too. Normally, the scar tissue is very thin and almost see through. However, in a very small percentage of women, this scar tissue can harden and can squeeze the implant causing a distortion in shape. When this happens, it is a complication referred to as "capsular contracture." It often makes the breast feel very hard and commonly pushes the implant up resulting in irregularities and asymmetry.

So how does Dr. Diaz fix this complication?

With the use of Strattice!

Strattice is a type of Acellular Dermal Matrix, or ADM. It is basically a thin layer of collagen from skin. It has been shown to drastically reduce the chance of capsular contracture forming.
