I'd never smoked, drinked, and I'm not diabetc. I'm health. My breast lift and augmentation look like worst, it reopened after stitches take off. When it opens, it starts to expulse pus with clear water in the stitches. I don't know if it is a infection or problem with the implant of silicone. My surgeon plastic told me that is normal than may be should be take off the stitches from in to out, and for that reason the stitches was reopened. This pictures is right now ( 4 week after surgery).

You are young and have fairly large breast implants. Because the tissue under your nipples are still firm (with young patients) as the breast is enlarged so does the nipple stick out more and can often become more sensitive for this reason. Don't worry, you are only 4 months...
During the first 6 weeks we recommend our patients should sleep on their back (or at least on your sides) to maintain the implants in the correct position and help prevent implant malposition. Lying or pressing firmly on the implants, could displace or move the implants in the early healing...
Dear Gingerti,
Usually, the "letdown feeling" you are experiencing is normal given the fact that you are at 5 weeks post surgery. It is normal to have sore pectoral muscles. Your implants are to settle more into their pockets with time.
So, you have to be a little more patient...
