Hi there,

I'm assuming you're concerned about having CC soon after breast aug? Makenzie discovered hers about 3 months after her implants were put in. I'm not sure if that's the soonest or not, but it can happen sooner than you might think. I would recommend a visit to your plastic surgeon's office to get checked out.
