After having breast augmentation I started getting a rash at about 3 weeks, all over my chest, I did research and thought maybe it was from the adhesive strips underneath. I saw an allergist who gave me a 6 day steroid pack and it cleared up but I still have a lot of red and warm to touch on the sides, no pain or swelling, still itchy at night mainly. My surgeon was not sure either what I was having a reaction too, waiting to get blood tests back from my allergist. Should I be worried??

It is not uncommon to have more soreness on the dominant side after breast augmentation. Make sure you are doing your surgeon's scar care regime and following up closely with him or her.
Tuberous breasts are not simply small or underdeveloped breasts. The appearance of the breast can range from mild to severe, and typical traits include: enlarged, puffy areola, rather wide spacing between the breasts, very little breast tissue, sagging, higher than normal inferior breast fold,...
Many thanks for your question. From your picture it appears that the right breast incision separated following surgery which has left a wide scar. At this stage taping will not successfully narrow this. However it is still worth taping to provide support to the scar as it settles and matures....
