Bumps on Nipple After Breast Lift and Implants

Actually, these are a normal finding, unrelated to your breast surgery. They are called Montgomery's tubercles or Montgomery's glands of the breast. It's not a pimple or infection or post-op problem. In some women, they are simply a little more prominent. No treatment is required.

Montgomery's glands are normal, and have the appearance of bumps in the nipple areolar complex.  You may not have noticed them before surgery, but they were there.  It is possible that there is swelling which will subside after the wounds have all healed.

Hi.  So these "bumps" are just normal glands.  Often after breast surgery especially if the nipple and areola are involved there is some swelling and they can seem enhanced.  Additionally you are now much more aware of your breasts then ever before.  Totally ok!

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photos. You may be referring to the glands within the nipple areolar region that can become more pronounced with breast augmentation/mastopexy procedures. They may soften as the swelling and healing progresses in the breast.

as discussed below, the bumps are small normal glands on the nipple.  They are swollen and should return to a similar size as before with time.

This is a normal finding.  You might be noticing them more just after surgery and in the heat due to swelling and perfusion.  The nipple and areola are very vascular and sit atop the breast gland.  This too fluctuates and with it the areola as well.

These small bumps are called Montgomery glands, and they are normal.  They have always been there, but may just be more noticeable to you after your breast lift.  The good news is that they are normal and nothing needs to be done.

This is a normal finding and not of concern. It is not related to your breast surgery. Best of luck.

These bumps are normal findings called Montgomery’s Tubercles. They were present before surgery, but with stretching of the skin and swelling are now more apparent. They do not require any type of treatment. If you continue to have concerns, you should consult your plastic surgeon.

These bumps are normal and are referred to as Montgomery's tubercles.  They may change with any breast lift with a peri-areolar (around the nipple) incision because of swelling and post operative changes - but in time they will likely be back as they were.

The bumps on your breast are normal. They are montgomery glands and they are edematous (swollen) from surgery. The swelling will resolve over time as your heal. There is no need to be concerned.
