The procedure I underwent was a Stereotactic core needle biopsy (info taken directly from the pathology report I was given). They did make about a quarter-inch incision before inserting the needle. My surgeon saw me about 4 days after the biopsy was performed, but since the dimple is only noticeable when I raise my arms, I hadn't noticed it yet.

Answer: Biopsy yes, that is normal especially with the amount of bruise and swelling you have. Let the bruise go away completely and then start massage of the area a few times per day and I bet it resolves well. If not, it is definitely something that can be fixed at the time of the augmentation. I would be happy to see you for this anytime, but best after the bruise is gone. Best of luck! Dr Boschert

Answer: Breast augmentation biopsy dimple It is difficult to gauge how a scan will do after a breast augmentation. I like to cut out all breast scars if I am going to be using that incision to perform my breast augmentation. My best recommendation would be for you to have a plastic surgeon examine your breast.

Answer: Biopsy scar after breast augmentation Hello and thank you for your excellent question. It is really impossible to tell how your scar will evolve after a breast augmentation. When I have patients in a similar situation, I suggest either a subdermal scar release, or possible fat grafting to the area of concern (provided that your biopsy results are normal). It is essential that you have an in-person consultation to develop a treatment plan that specifically addresses your personal surgical goals, and your body’s anatomy. I recommend that you find a board-certified, or board-eligible plastic surgeon with whom you are comfortable. Be sure to have all of your questions answered during a face-to-face meeting with your surgeon, and review before and after pictures of similar patients whom have had this procedure. If you have any questions, call our office for assistance. Good luck!
