Breasts Warm To Touch 2 Weeks Post-Op- Normal?

Nadia, these are all good questions, but what I worry about is why you need the answers to your question by surgeons other than the one who performed your procedure. 

To be clear, what I mean, is that these and many other issues concerning breast augmentation surgery should have been clearly and fully discussed with you by your surgeon before surgery.  I spend so much time going over what to expect after surgery, including what is normal and what is abnormal.  Also, sizing is so important when planning to undergo breast augmentation that, at my practice, we spend time at each of your pre operative appointments to try on different sized implants in order to make sure we are all on the same page and there is no room for error.  Did you have these discussions with your surgeon?

Nevertheless, to help answer your questions now I would still refer you to your surgeon, whom you should be seeing on a regular basis:

1. Your breast do not appear to be infected from the picture you posted.  Temperature changes in the skin is an inacurrate way to determine if there is a possible infection.

2. The breasts are swollen so soon after surgery and it will take a while for the implants to drop into a better position and the shape of your breasts to improve.  This is normal and supportive garments and massage are the best things to do at this time.

3.  The size is a personal decision, but at this time, it is better to wait for everything to heal and settle into final position before making any major decisions or changes.

Hope this helps you feel better.

Thank
you for the question. You are still in
the post operation recovery stage. It is
not uncommon to feel pain, itchiness, and swelling during this
period. It usually takes about 8-12
weeks for the wounds to heal and around 4-6 months for the implants to fully
settle. It would be best to visit your
board-certified plastic surgeon and get a full assessment for your concern. Best of luck. Dr. Michael Omidi.

in-person exam with a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to assess
your needs and provide true medical advice.
