Blisters on Scar Site?

HerhutJun 6, 2013
I had top surgery about 2 months ago. The healing process was going ok, but about 3 weeks ago I got blisters on both areolas and on my scars. I went to my doctor right after the first blister appeared and he said that it has never happened to him but it's pretty 'normal' and that it would stop in a week or so. It's been over 2 weeks since he said it would eventually stop but it hasn't and I've been getting more blisters on my scars. Is it actually normal or something went wrong?

First of all you do not have bottoming out. Secondly two weeks is much too early to consider a revision. At the moment I think your breasts look fine.

You should wait it out for 3 to 4 months before assessing your results. Your areola may get better over this time.

Breast volume is affected by changes in sex steroid levels. As adjustments are made to levels of the hormones in your body the breasts volume may indeed change. How much is unpredictable.
