Late onset seroma 6 years after breast augmentation (Photo)

September 9, 2021
Asked By:Betty boobjob in England, United Kingdom

I’ve developed Seroma in my left breast 6 years post breast augmentation. Initially I was referred to the breast cancer clinic. I got the all clear and they told me to live with the Seroma for 4 weeks to see if it goes on it’s own and if it doesn’t they will drain it. The ultrasound only showed a slither of fluid but my breast is rock hard and larger. It’s also asymmetrical and uncomfortable. I’m really worried about capsular contracture too. Any advice would be appreciated
