Prevention of Capsular Contracture through Breast Massage
Following breast surgery, the medical assistant will instruct you how to perform breast exercises. Do these massages twice a day. The purpose of these exercises is to keep the pocket open and the capsule loose and elastic.
Step One: Put your thumb in the armpit, fan your fingers open across the top portion of the breast, bring your thumb to the index finger, keeping your palm flat to the breast giving a squeeze moving implant down (south).
Step Two: Take your pinky finger, put it underneath the fold of the breast. Slowly rotate your hand upward, keeping areola and nipple complex between thumb and index finger. Hold for ten to fifteen seconds. Slowly open you hand and allow the implant to come into the palm of your hand.
Step Three: Place the palm of your hand on the outer portion of the breasts. Slowly push inward. Hold ten to fifteen seconds. Slowly release.
Step Four: Opposite hand, opposite breast. Hold your hand open, with the thumb in the middle of the breast, Slowly push outward towards the armpit. Hold fifteen seconds. Repeat other side.
Do these exercises for five minutes in the morning and five minutes in the evening. You will complete them in about four to five minutes.
