9 days post op, small amount if fluid leaking around incision. Is this normal? (photos)

Hello, in general some fluid is expected. If you have any concerns I would contact your surgeon so that they can check to wound and provide better information. Good luck.

Hello, thank you for your question and photos. Since there has been a change in your #post #operative healing, I suggest you alert your #BCPS and request an #in-person #evaluation. An in-person evaluation will be best to determine what the #optimal #treatment plan will be to provide improved healing. Best Wishes!

I appreciate your question.Since there has been a change in your post op course, please contact your plastic surgeon so he/she can examine you and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan at this time.

The best way to assess and give true
advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified plastic
surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.Best of luck!

What you are looking at is small drainage as the wound heals.  This is not concerning at this stage.  If this get worse or increases in amount then have your surgeon take a look.  This is just debris of the wound healing process and should not pose a problem for you as you continue to heal.  Good luck. Hope this helps.Dr Vasisht

Thanks for your question and photos.  It looks like everything is healing fine and a little yellow fluid is not uncommon.  If you develop redness, greater warmth in the area, fever, then I would call your surgeon right away.  If you are not sure, you should be examined by your surgeon.  Good luck!
