Vertical Lines Under Crease and Pulling After Breast Augmentation? (photo)

Thanks for posting pictures, it is very helpful in answering your question.  These lines are from tension from the deep sutures closing the incision.  When you raise your arms, it increases the tension and makes the "string look" under your skin.  These are dissolvable sutures and will disappear as the suture dissolves - likely 4 to 8 weeks.

 

Good Luck.

Thank you for the question.  Your photographs demonstrate Mondor's veins ( inflamed veins). Your plastic surgeon will always be your best resource when it comes to making accurate diagnosis and treatment recommendations.   The use of anti-inflammatories and warm compresses may be helpful to expedite resolution (check with your plastic surgeon).  Resolution of this inflammatory process may take several weeks/months.Best wishes.

The lines you are seeing may be the result of inflammation and clotting of some small veins under the skin which may have been cut during your breast augmentation (a form of "Mondor's disease").  They usually resolve on their own; anti-inflammatories and warm compresses may be helpful once you have healed.  I would recommend that you see your plastic surgeon, who can perform a physical exam and recommend treatment appropriate for you.
