If you are comfortable with the outcome of your surgery, then there is nothing to worry about.  If the hardness is bothersome, then additional surgery to partially or completely remove the caspule may soften the breasts.

Pain and hardness following breast enlargment surgery is most likely the result of capsule contracture (scar tissue squeezing the implant) and unlikely to be a sign of cancer.  For complete assurance, you need a mammagram.
