Strange sensations and sounds early after breast augmentation
It is totally normal to hear strange fluid sounds early after breast augmentation. These are harmless and always go away.

Why Can I Hear My Breasts?
It is normal to hear sloshing or gurgling in the early period after breast augmentation. This is usually from a combination of air and fluid that is in the implant pocket. This is not unusual after a breast augmentation. The body will absorb this, and after a couple weeks it should no longer be an issue.
Hope that helps!

Different sounds/feelings after breast augmentation.
There is always a small amount of air and fluid around a breast implant following augmentation. This is present for a few weeks after surgery and is then reabsorbed. The combination can create all sorts of strange sounds such as the ones you are experiencing. It should stop after a few weeks.

Strange noises after breast augmentations
A few of my patients have expressed this concern. There is a small air bubble in the saline implant which can contribute to this, as well as fluid around the implant which shifts during motion. These are usually gone after they are absorbed in a few weeks. Some of the sensation of having an implant may not go away, but what you describe is usually temporary.

Strange noises are normal after breast augmentation
It is very common after breast augmentation to hear strange gurgling or sloshing noises after breast augmentation--especially after saline implant augmentation. As the implants settle and the capsule forms, these noises generally go away but they can be alarming to someone who has just had surgery.
