What can I do about redness 8 months after 775cc breast reconstruction/augmentation? (Photos)

Asked By:jamegamb

I had a mastectomy, then 5 years later had breast reconstruction. I’m quite overweight and had a good bit of tissue left, so my surgeon didn’t do expanders, just kind of popped implants it. I went from being very flat chested to 775 CCs in each breast, over the muscle. I’m pretty happy but wondering about the redness and what I can do. I was told I wouldn't really have to wear bras and often don't, maybe I should wear something supportive more often?
