Does this look normal? I had a breast lift 10 days ago and my right breast doesn't look likes it's healing properly.

I had a breast lift about 10 days ago but my right breast the areola and nipple seem to be black and not healing well and it also looks like it's detaching from my breast. I keep sending my surgeon pictures and he just says it's normal and everything is ok but I'm worried. Can somebody please help? I did go see my primary Dr a few days ago just to make sure there was no infection and she assured me that there was no infection going on as far as she can see the yellow discharge she said it was normal.
