Question

Ronald J. Edelson, MD · Answer

You should see a plastic surgeon. It looks like your implant or graft is infected and it needs to be removed. Get it done before it erodes through tip

Anil R. Shah, MD · Answer

Hopefully this issue is already resolved but would recommend following up with your surgeon to rule out infection or allergic reaction. Hope you are well.

Donald B. Yoo, MD, FACS · Answer

One should have a high index of suspicion for infection any time redness occurs acutely. Evaluation by a qualified physician to examine and treat you appropriately is warranted.
