Hematoma After a Breast Lift: Will It Effect My Result?

January 18, 2011
Asked By:Tropaz in England

Hi I had a breast uplift 11 days ago. My right breast has been more swollen and bruised than the left, I visited my Dr today and he wants me to come back in for more surgery as it is a hematoma. He says it is a small operation, is this the case and what does it involve? Will it effect the overall 'result' of my uplift? Thanks.
