10 weeks after my augmentation and donut lift and I noticed this opening, should I be worried? (Photo)

Asked By:johannaveee in Los Angeles, CA

So everything has been going well. My right breast has dropped but my left one is taking longer but I’m not worried since this is normal. However, I just noticed this open wound around my nipple, where my stitches are. I’m not sure if necrosis can still happen this late in the game or what exactly it is.
