I'm now 3 months post op and still have pins & needles sensations on my left breast, below the nipple so mainly around the incision line. I had 335cc HP, rounds and they were placed under the muscle. Could this be the nerves re generating? I would have thought it would have passed by now however I am no professional! It doesn't bother me too much but sometimes it feels numb & tingles when I touch, just as pins & needles would. Opinions appreciated :-)

Hi there, and congratulations on your implants! Based on your pictures, it looks like everything is beginning to heal nicely. However, at only nine days after your breast augmentation, your implants still haven't had a chance to "drop and fluff." By this, we mean that your breast tissue will...
Don't you think you should ONLY ask the operative chosen surgeon??? You had an illness last week now you have an yeast issue... Maybe your immune system is under attack. Best to see the surgeon ASAP!
I usually prefer my patients do not wear a bra for the first 3-4 weeks. I would like the breasts to be able to settle into a natural position and not be held too high by a bra. Each surgeon has their own methods and I would follow your surgeon's advice.
