What are those white spots? Why did they appear? (photos)

Question

It's 2 months after I had my BA done and a couple of days ago I notice some white spots under my breasts. They kind of move or change in intensity, sometimes they look more noticeable and some I can barely tell the difference in skin tone. I didn't have this before surgery but I'm not sure if it's got anything to do with that. I hope someone can help me better understand what they are and why they appeared. Thanks!

Thank you for your question. The skin discoloration most likely is not related to your surgery. However, for a better evaluation, seek the advice of a dermatologist or your primary care physician.

Thank you for your question. I think these skin discoloration changes are unlikely related to your breast surgery. You will get the best expertise by visiting a trusted dermatologist. It is also a good idea to let your surgeon know.

It is not likely that this has to do with your surgery. A visit to your primary doc or to a dermatologist will be the way to find out what this might be.Thanks, all the best.
