I have 425 saline mod profile unders in both breast. My right is filled to 450 and left filled to 490. Its been eight weeks since surgery and my left is still pretty sore. The implant is feels a little to overfilled and my crease is a little lower then the right. It hurts in the lower part of my breast along with my ribs on that same side. My right feels good, no pain or soreness. Is this normal and how long will it last?
Answer: Pain after Breast Augmentation?
Thank you for the question.
Discomfort after any type of surgery will vary from one patient to another depending on many factors including patients' pain threshold, the exact procedure performed, the amount/extent of dissection necessary, surgical technique…
The majority of patients who undergo breast augmentation surgery have significant discomfort for the first 2 to 4 days after surgery. This discomfort (and requirements for pain medication and muscle relaxant) decreases rapidly on a weekly basis.
Given that your breasts is still “pretty sore” after 8 weeks, you may want to follow-up with your plastic surgeon for evaluation. He/she will be in the best position to advise you.
Best wishes.

Answer: How Long Do Breast Hurt After a BA? There is not much pain after the breast augmentation surgery and usually a patient goes home on the same day of the surgery and can start daily normal activities from the same day. There is slight discomfort for 3-4 days, which can be taken care with oral medication and painkillers. Consult a board certified plastic surgeon near you to examine you further.

Answer: Could have Seroma, Hematoma, or Infection; Go See Your Surgeon Thank you for your question. Eight weeks out this should not really be happening. Especially since you have symptoms only on one side, you may have a seroma, a hematoma or an infection. I would go see your surgeon, and ask his advice.

Answer: Pain after a breast augmentation Great question - pain is such a subjective experience - most of my patients are back at work 6-7 days post-op. But it is certainly possible for the pain to be significant for a longer period of time. Everyone is different. That being said, it would be very surprising to me that a patient would have any discomfort whatsoever 8 weeks post-op. In that situation probably best to follow-up with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck.

Answer: Pain after Breast Augmentation This is a very normal and common question I get from my patients. From my experience, I can tell you that everyone is different in their recovery. It can vary greatly from patient to patient. Some patients state they are pain free the next day following surgery, while others state they continue to have discomfort 3-4 weeks after their surgery. IF you are complaining of certain areas of pain, and it continue to bother you, I would recommend you talk directly eith your surgeon and address teh specific areas of your concern.
