I had a breast aug today. When I lift my arm the implant makes a weird noise? What is this?

Hearing or sensing noises, sloshing of fluid or other complaints are very common after breast augmentation. It is likely due to a small amount of fluid or air around the implants. It will go away quickly and is nothing to worry about. Thanks for your question and best of luck!

The noise is normal and will go away on its own.  It is likely the implants rubbing on the chest wall and some air in the space.

Thank you for your question.  It is not uncommon to hear a squeaking or squishing sound soon after breast augmentation surgery.  There can be a small amount of fluid and the tissues gliding over the implant before the capsule forms can create this.  It goes away over the ensuing weeks.  

Thank you for your question. Congratulations on your surgery. The sound that you hear is likely a combination of fluid from the irrigation as well as air in the pocket. This will go away probably in the next few weeks. Best of Luck!

It is not unusual to hear or feel strange things after a breast augmentation that then just seem to go after a period of days or weeks.  Patients sometimes experience sloshing, clicking, or a bubbling feeling (among other descriptions patients have given me).  There is always a bit of air and/or fluid in the breast implant pocket right after surgery that will resolve on its own that is the culprit.

What you are describing is quite commonly described after breast surgery.  The sensation of air trapped in the tissues is also commonly described. However, any significant increase in swelling/size would be of concern. Best wishes.

It is fairly common to hear or feel strange noises or sensations immediately after breast surgery.  Some women hear a "sloshing" sound.  Most likely it is air in the pocket or irrigation fluid.  Your body will absorb these, and the strange sensations and noises will go away.  However, it may take a week or two.  Good luck!
