I had BA 12 days ago. My breasts feel so warm around nipple area, Not sure if im getting an infection or what. Also, please view my pics. I had BA , high profile as he recommended, smooth round silicone 375 implants. Will these eventually drop, or will they be this high for high for good. I absolutely detest this look and it's disturbing me. He also made them much smaller than i requested.
Answer: Breasts warm to touch 2 weeks postoperatively You are very early in the healing process. When the implants are placed underneath the muscle layer it takes a few months for the muscles to relax and allow the implants to settle into the lower part of the breast. In addition to that still have some postoperative swelling that will subside in time. As long as you do not have unusual redness surrounding your incisions and no unusual drainage it is very likely that you do not have an infection. The healing process following any operation demands and increased amount of blood flow to the area. Very likely you will have a satisfactory result. Good luck

Answer: Still early in post-operative healing... It’s important to understand that it’s still early in the post-operative course and your breasts will undergo significant changes with the passage of time.During the healing process, blood flow to the breasts increases and this may account for the sensation of warmth.In addition, swelling and muscle spasm can result in breast implants being superiorly positioned.All of these problems resolve with time.It’s therefore, too early to make aesthetic judgements about your result.Nevertheless, if you’re concerned about your progress, you should consult your plastic surgeon.

Answer: Warm Breasts After Surgery You are still early on in your recovery. During this time, your body is repairing itself and that's probably why your breasts feel warm. Your breasts are still sitting high since they haven't "dropped and fluffed".If you have any concerns, please talk to your surgeon. Best of luck.

Answer: Recovery after Breast Surgery
Please follow up with your surgeon regularly to address the "warm breasts". Usually, if you have an infection, you will have redness, fever/chills, discharge, etc. It is too early to assess the size and shape of your breasts as they will continue to heal, swelling will subside, implants will settle into the pocket, and the size and shape will change. Allow yourself healing time and communicate with your surgeon.

Answer: Is this normal after Breast Augmentation?
Nadia, these are all good questions, but what I worry about is why you need the answers to your question by surgeons other than the one who performed your procedure.
To be clear, what I mean, is that these and many other issues concerning breast augmentation surgery should have been clearly and fully discussed with you by your surgeon before surgery. I spend so much time going over what to expect after surgery, including what is normal and what is abnormal. Also, sizing is so important when planning to undergo breast augmentation that, at my practice, we spend time at each of your pre operative appointments to try on different sized implants in order to make sure we are all on the same page and there is no room for error. Did you have these discussions with your surgeon?
Nevertheless, to help answer your questions now I would still refer you to your surgeon, whom you should be seeing on a regular basis:
1. Your breast do not appear to be infected from the picture you posted. Temperature changes in the skin is an inacurrate way to determine if there is a possible infection.
2. The breasts are swollen so soon after surgery and it will take a while for the implants to drop into a better position and the shape of your breasts to improve. This is normal and supportive garments and massage are the best things to do at this time.
3. The size is a personal decision, but at this time, it is better to wait for everything to heal and settle into final position before making any major decisions or changes.
Hope this helps you feel better.
