I am 9 days post-op with hard feeling under incisions. Is that normal?

Hello, thank you for your recent question.  At this point after surgery what you are feeling is scar tissue, swelling and the sutures.  I would recommend massaging the incision with a scar gel to help soften this area.  In time things will soften up as well. Best of luck !

Thank you for sharing your question and congratulations on your breast augmentation.  Most likely this is scar tissue that has developed as part of the normal healing response of your skin.  This should soften and flatten over time to be less noticeable.  I would bring this up with your surgeon at your next postoperative appointment so that you can have greater reassurance. 

Thank you for the question. It sounds very normal what you are describing as the normal healing process. This should improve with time as deeper  sutures dissolve and swelling resolves. If persists you may want to discuss with your surgeon- give it 3-6 months to be fully healed. Good Luck to you!

Thanks for the great question and congratulations on your surgery. What you are feeling is likely a suture holding the skin edges together. Depending on what type of sutures are used, these may be palpable for up to a few months after surgery. It will gradually diminish with time. Best of luck!~Dr. Sieber

Congratulations on your surgery. What you are most likely feeling are the deep sutures that you cannot see better under the skin holding it together. As scar tissue forms to anchor the skin. These lumps will fade away. It takes 6 to 9 months sometimes. Hope that's helpful.
