Individuals with severe scarring tendencies or recent inflammation in the breast area are not suitable candidates for silicone breast augmentation. If proper postoperative care is not followed after silicone breast augmentation surgery, wound infection may occur, leading to hypertrophic scarring. During silicone breast augmentation, once an infection develops, it can easily result in capsular contracture, causing localized pain from the tightening of the capsule that forms around the implant. Silicone breast augmentation has certain side effects. Silicone is a special substance whose composition differs from normal tissue and cannot integrate with natural body tissues.
