I noticed what looks like an air bubble/blister on my right breast incision site. What is this? (photos)

The skin is raised there. I noticed it a day ago and I had my breast augmentation surgery back in March. I e-mailed my plastic surgeon and am seeing him later this week. He said it could be the scar thinning out. Should I be concerned?
