I am post op 6 days currently and I am very concerned about the skin between my breasts. It is extremely stretched, tight, and rasied. Is there anything I can do to correct this as I am healing? Also, why is there two incesion areas on the one breast?, and is that going to affect my nipple placement?

Answer: What Can I Do About Raised/Stretched Skin Above the Sternum? (Photos) Answer:
It is too early to tell if that is going to be a long term problem or not. Your implants look very large for your frame and too large of implants in a thin woman can do this. Other times I have seen this be a problem even long term in normal size, just depending on the anatomy. As far as the two incisions on one breast…I am unsure about that. You have to ask your doctor why. That seems unusual to me.

Answer: Possible symmastia It looks like your implants were not sized correctly for your breasts. They're too wide.At this time you're early on in your recovery. Yes, the skin between your breasts is problematic, but you should wait at least a couple of months before assessing your results. It may resolve itself as you recover. Keep an eye on it and make sure your surgeon is aware of your situation.
