Had hematoma drained yesterday. Should I worry that it might come back? My breast is still swollen today (Photo)

 Thank you for your question and I'm sorry to hear that you had to have a hematoma evacuation. Chances are you're going to be fairly swollen after the pricedure, as your tissues may still be bruised and attract a lot of water. This should resolve more with every few days that passes by. If you notice that the swelling is only getting worse, then I would revisit quickly with your plastic surgeon.

Hematoma after breast augmentation is a known risk factor.  Prompt surgical evacuation should not alter the outcome.  Post surgical swelling is normal on the hematoma side but your breast should be soft.  Remember that the non-hematoma side is healing at a normal rate so the initial swelling from your first surgery will be less by now.  That is why you will see some asymmetry.Just keep your surgeon updated on your progress.Best wishes,Nana Mizuguchi

It's rare for recurrent bleeding although possible. Seek the advice of your Board certified plastic surgeon
