Sudden changes in the breast could herald a capsular contracture, hematoma or even seroma

Sudden changes in the breast could herald a capsular contracture, hematoma or even seroma. You should contact your surgeon to be evaluated.

3 weeks post breast augmentation

It is fairly common to have some discomfort 3 weeks after surgery. This usually gets better with time as the body accomodates to the implant.  If you have concerns, contact your doctor.
