Had a breast reduction 3.5 weeks ago and one side of my breast is bruised and hard, the other is almost normal. (photo)

Hello rsam123,
Thanks for sharing your experience after surgery. It's not uncommon to have asymmetric bruising and firmness after breast reduction surgery. After all, the breasts are not identical twins. Often, plastic surgeons find that the anatomy of the breasts is subtly different. This can cause slight differences in the rates of healing between the two sides. A bit of bruising and firmness is normal after surgery and should resolve in time. If it continues to bother you, I recommend you return to your surgeon for regular examinations.
