I noticed a small hole where my lollipop incision is under my left breast 2 nights ago. I had some scabs on my right nipple also, so I placed gauze on the areas to keep them from rubbing me while wearing my sports bra, and I woke up to this and I am worried but not panicking yet. what do I do? My plastic surgeon is in another state. do I keep these spots dry and air them out?

Answer: Breast lift incision Dear earlbuckey,this type of wound is not uncommon after breast lift. It is usually caused by poor blood flow. I would suggest you to consult your plastic surgeon, follow your surgeon's instructions and keep your wound clean and covered. It can take few weeks or months for wound to fully heal.

Answer: Wounds You lost some tissue and need to keep them clean and covered so that you do not pick up more infection and slow the healing process down. Please find a physician to check you and watch your progress. You do not want this to infect your implants and have to have them removed.
