ANSWER
You will need capsulectomies and new textured implants placed under the muscle. Placing the implants under the muscle will increase your chances of staying soft long term.

ANSWER
I would let my surgeon remove this as it may pull the incision open. Saline on the gauze will eventually allow it's removal. Better to wait a week so the wound can heal more before taking off with less chance of pulling it open.

ANSWER
You have a very small blister which results from swelling and a shearing force on the steri strip. Just use antibiotic ointment on it twice daily and it should heal without any complications.

ANSWER
Most likely if it has been 2 years and sensation has not returned the nipple will be numb permanently. I have seen return of sensation when performing other procedures on the same breast. This would be very rare however.
Asked By: Sbl
ANSWER
As your breasts heal and the implants drop the nipple will continue to be pushed up. So wait at least 6 months before considering another procedure. And it is normal for large breasts to fall towards the axilla when laying down.

ANSWER
No, I don't think you are a candidate for a crescent mastopexy. They don't work very well in my opinion and you will need at least a vertical or full mastopexy to look perky.

ANSWER
The most common area for incisions in breast augmentation are periareolar and in the IMF. Both heal very well with minimal scarring and can be hidden in a bikini.

ANSWER
Most likely you did not do any damage to your breasts during sex. I would be careful stressing the pectoralis muscles (if your implants are under the muscle) for about 6-8 weeks following surgery. If not completely healed you could possibly tear one of the muscles.

ANSWER
You can feel these sensations for up to a year. This is just the normal healing process and maturing of the scar tissue. You should be able to resume all activity at this point in your recovery without any fear of complications.
