I have a small hole underneath my breast where all scars meet. I’m 7 weeks post op, will this go away on its own?
Answer: Implant Call your surgeon immediately and ask to be seen now. Your implant is eroding through your breast skin and will get infected if not treated quickly. It may need to be removed.

Answer: Breast lift incision Dear Dreams525, this type of wound is not uncommon after breast lift. It is usually caused by poor blood flow and increased tension. I would suggest you to consult your plastic surgeon, follow your surgeon's instructions and keep your wound clean and covered. It can take few weeks or months for wound to fully heal.

Answer: Breast lift wound Thank you for your question. This area tends to be the weakest part of a breast lift. It's where all the tension is. Normally this area heals very well. I would suggest following up with your surgeon and following their recommendation on how to care for it. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Breast Lift Wound Thank you for your question. The area where all the scars meet in a breast lift is a common place for wound breakdown. This typically heals with local wound care. I recommend you follow up with your surgeon so he may evaluate you in person. Best of luck.
