I did not take any medicine to help reduce bruising and do typically bruise quite easy. However, my left incision site looks pretty dark. They do not hurt. Is this something I should worry about or is it within normal bruising expectations?

Answer: Breast augmentation Hello and thank you for the question. Unfortunately, it would be hard to give you a definitive advice without an in-person examination. You should be evaluated by your surgeon to make sure there is no underlying hematoma. Best,

Answer: Bruising Dear ltravis88, bruising after surgery can occur and if it is not extensive it is not something to be worried about. I understand your concern. 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. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.
