Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. It appears that the tissue underneath your scab is healing well and shows no signs of further compromise or infection. I would now reach out to your surgeon in order to discuss local care options to help speed healing and maturation of scarring. Hope this helps.
Hello!This looks fine. Typical area for healing issues at nipple. Keep this area clean and apply Aquaphor daily - get a fresh tube - and cover with bandage. Schedule a time to see your surgeon for an assessment, particularly if there is redness, drainage, pain.Best of luck!
Follow your PS's post-operative guidelines in caring for your scar. Silicone sheets, Mederma, and Biocorneum are reasonable and popular options.

This is a very common site for delayed healing as it is where the inner and outer 'flaps' of breast tissue and skin come together under tension. It should go on to heal over the next 3 - 4 weeks on its own, but needs a dressing to allow it to heal. Occasionally there is a retained suture at this area which needs to be removed to allow this area to heal. You should check with your surgeon to be sure there is not a retained deep stitch.

You have a small area of dehiscence or opening on the left breast. This should close with conservative treatment. You should follow up with your plastic surgeon.
I would reach out to your board certified plastic surgeon before using this to aid in swelling. This is not typically used post breast augmentation.
Hello and thank you for your question and photo's. Stop using it right away, you are allergic to it. I recommend silicone gel strips or silicone gel.
Thank you for this important question. You may have heard the saying the "breasts are sisters not twins". This refers to the very normal situation where one may heal faster and in a different way than the other. The soreness you describe sounds very normal for where you are in the recovery...
I do not believe there is any scientific evidence that collagen supplementation leads to excessive scar formation. Standard scar-decreasing maneuvers such as relief of tension, sun-avoidance, massage & perhaps silicone (usually reserved for when/if scar hypertrophy actually forms) will...
Hello, Thank you for your question! It is difficult to assess you based off photos alone. It may be best to speak with your plastic surgeon, as each surgeon has different protocols and post op instructions Regards,
The answer to your question requires further information. If you are less than three to six months out from surgery you can expect the breasts to continue to soften and the look may become a little more natural. Other things that can impact the way the breasts look are weight gain/loss, age,...
