Lumpy hard tissue in breasts 6 weeks after explant. Will this dissolve on its own? (photo)

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. Unfortunately without feeling the tissue it is difficult to give you firm advice but if the capsule was hardened or thickened it should have been removed at the time of surgery.  If it was thin then the firmness is likely a combination of tissue swelling and scar tissue formation which should soften and improve with additional time.  Hope this helps.

It's hard to render an opinion without an examination.  It could be scar tissue or potentially a hematoma.  It is best to schedule a visit with your surgeon to discuss your concerns.

Thank you for your questionWithout in person exam it is difficult to asses what the bump/hard tissue is. It could be scar, hematoma, thickness of the capsule....I suggest you follow up with your surgeon and yes be patient before considering fat transfert to that areaBest Wishes

If your capsule was very thin, it is probably not the hardness you are feeling. You may still have some swelling, or may have a small hematoma or scar tissue. I would suggest letting your surgeon check you. Also, so fat transfer, you will need some donor fat.
