So I havd my augmentation done 5/25/22. That fall I could I was pregnant with my second baby. I had him and breastfed until about 11/2023. This week, I have noticed that I have dimpling below both nipples on my areolas. Fat necrosis, injury, cancer?? Not sure what I could’ve done to be injured but wondering what someone thinks I should do. Have you seen this in a postop before?

Dear Tough615594,
I understand your concern. Ultrasound can show the pocket and implant placement. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after...
Thanks for your question. From these pictures, you seem to be a good candidate for just a breast augmentation. I recommend scheduling a consult for a proper evaluation. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Dr. Moises Salama, board certified plastic surgeon.
Breast implants don’t regularly cause hair loss, and they are incredibly well studied by the FDA. Any surgery (since it stresses the body) can cause a temporary hair thinning called telogen effluvium, but the hair grows back
