Infection After Breast Augmentation and Lift

Based on the photographs, it seems that your redness is very focal to the area around the incision.  The main portion of the breast appears to be uninvolved.  Could it be that you may be reacting the sutures that are used for the internal dermal suturing?  Sometimes, sutures like vicryl and monocryl can cause a reaction like the one around your incision.  Please check with your surgeon for that possibility.  Good luck with this issue.

An augmentation mastopexy is the reason for the most litigation of plastic all surgery cases.  This indicates it is a procedure where complications of varying degrees are not uncommon.  Based upon the pic provided, it does not appear to be infected.  I give all breast augmentation patients antibiotics, but this is not mandatory.  See your doctor and don't be afraid to ask questions. Good Luck!
