Is this fluid or fat under my breast? (Photos)

Micah1301
Had a terrible exeperience with a BA by one of "Seattle's best surgeons", I bottomed out within 3 days due to a surgical error and got implants removed 6 months later under local anesthesia. Now when I wear a bra or bathing suit you can see my scars and a pocket that feels like fat but concerned it may be fluid. I did have drains in for a week after removal. Any idea what this is? Recently moved to IL and plan on seeing a board certified PS next month for TT and BL & scar revision.1.5 ys Post op
