Clear chest before augmentation, Breakouts afterwards?

December 29, 2016
Asked By:thekimber in Atlanta, GA

my upper chest area(mostly) and (less) my actual breasts are developing large, sore bumps that turn into actual pimples. Love the augmentation results! but this does take away from some of the excitement :( 7 weeks postop, under muscle. 450cc. scars are almost invisible! Is this normal?
