The reason I did it was that my breast were sagging to low. I am just worried about this recovery period and getting these wounds closed up.I have two openings, one on each breast. I am in my 4th week after breast lift surgery. My question is what to do with these openings? Leave them alone? try to close them with a tape and neosporin? thank you for your response!

Hi Dallaslove,

I would suggest that you contact the surgeon who performed your breast lift.

He/she should follow-up with you to treat any post-op problems like this.  You definitely shouldn't have to try to patch yourself up alone!

I would definately not leave it I would either contact the surgeon who originally performed the surgery or seek a second opinion straight away.
