Sorry to hear about that bad timing. As long as there is no ongoing infection you should be good to go for your breast augmentation.

My surgery was canceled a week before surgery because of an infection , my surgeon advise me as long as I’ve an infection the surgery won’t go ahead , I went to the gp today and I was prescribed more antibiotics I have to take them right up to my surgery day I’ve told my surgeon I am taking a second course of antibiotics. Will my surgery be canceled again

Breast augmentation canceled due to UTI. Will my surgery be cancelled again?

Breast Augmentation

Thanks for the question and the photos. The implants are in a high position. When I place implants in a sub muscular position, I keep them too high in anticipation that they will drop over the first few months. Be patient. You are only 5 weeks out. They will be in a better position within the next few months.

I am 5 1/2 weeks post breast augmentation. I was a large A small B before operation. I am 5’5 and 130 lbs. I got saline 600cc mentor implants under muscle with the transaux incision. My dr seemed a little concerned at my 1 month check up that they were still riding high. Told me to go braless as much as possible and heavily massage 5-7 times a day. They are changing and getting softer but still very high and nipples low. I’m getting nervous I’ll have to have a revision. Does this look normal?

Mentor Breast Implants

Hreat question. This is called Xeroform gauze. It is petroleum based which means it is supposed to be easy to remove without sticking to the skin. However, this has dried out and is now sticking to the skin. I highly doubt anyone sutured this down. With time the gauze will dislodge. I don’t believe it would be a cause for infection.

This piece of material has been stuck to my belly button area since my surgery Dec 13 (10 days post) At my last appt, the nurse gently tried to remove with no success so she said I could just work it off in the shower. It hurts to try to pull on it at all. I dont know if it is sewn in there or stuck but it is becoming red and possibly like the beginnings of an infection. I have an appointment on Wednesday but would appreciate some opinions on what may be going on here. Thank you!

Tummy Tuck

Thanks for the question. Liposuction will take months for the swelling to revolve. Usuallly there will be areas of firmness that migrate to different areas.  If you had bruising of the flanks initially than I would guess they had liposuction performed. Just try to be patient and let the healing process occur.

Hi i had lipo on upper and lower abdomen and flanks. I am 12 days post op everything seems to be changing but although initially there was bruising alot of it on my love handles they look big and normal as they were before while my tummy is hard and swollen. Did he forget to do them? Also my lower abdomen has almost gone its still hard but does that mean it will go completely? Its lumpy and it hurts. However with no pain on lovehandles im worried he might not have done them why r theysoft?

Love handles feel more squishy. No pain after liposuction. Still there (Photo)

Liposuction

Thanks for the question. It's a bit difficult to tell from the picture but it appears to be a hematoma.  This needs to be monitored closely by a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

I have 2 very small black spots on my nipple 3 days after my breast augmentation,my areola looks normal and so does half of my nipple, it feels numb in spots,i saw my surgeon and she said it looked like bruising. I'm still a little nervous and want a second opinion to put my mind at ease
