Implant indentation near my periareolar incision (Photo)

January 20, 2023
Asked By:Cute685048 in Charleston, South Carolina

It’s been 7 months since I had an implant exchange and 2 months since I had to have a revision on my left breast. I had to have capsule work to lower my left breast to match my right breast. Right after the surgery I had this odd indentation. To me it looks like there is something going on with the incision, like it's pulling and causing the indentation. I am in the process of scheduling another revision to see if the incision is causing the indentation. Has anyone seen something similar?
