Answer: Painful areola Dear Awesome856362, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Answer: Painful Areola It is not uncommon to see the permanent sutured used underneath the skin to want to come through the skin, especially if your surgeon used a GoreTex suture. Go back to see your surgeon.

Answer: Likely Suture Granuloma Yes, that area is likely either a small cyst or a suture granuloma. Either is very common in surgeries with large incisions, such as a breast lift, breast reduction, or abdominoplasty. I would see your treating physician or a board certified plastic surgeon. A steroid shot or possibly a small excision procedure could likely fix this problem.

Answer: Your plastic surgeon should be made aware of this. The remaining portion of your incision looks excellent, but this bump is not normal. Most likely it’s a small cyst or the knot from a stitch, but it should be addressed and your plastic surgeon should be made aware of it so that they can treat it.
