I had breast lift with 350cc silicone implant on both left and right breast. Two weeks ago I posted about my concern regarding my right breast “dimple”. My plastic surgeon recommended an ultrasound, which we did and verified there were no abnormalities and it looked “normal” in his professional opinion. Will this dimple go away? I am not seeing any changes in the past 2 weeks. I am convinced it is scar tissue as I can feel a prominent bump, but both the ultrasound doctor and plastic surgeon conclude that it’s normal (?). Now what? Wait?

Answer: Dimple Dear Cat506,I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a breast augmentation and lift surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process.Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues around the implants are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides and the implants drop to their final position, you will be able to see the final result of your breast augmentation surgery.Daniel Barrett, MD

Answer: Breast contour irregularities can occur and may subside with time... but at this point, no prudent surgeon would get motivated to do something as there is a chance it could go away with time. So be patient and wait... but it still a depression 6 months later, fat grafting will quickly and reliably smooth it out.
