Advice for on seroma?? (photos)

If the seroma fails to respond to the conservative approach you are currently taking, some surgical intervention is the next step. A washout with exploration to make sure the implant and capsule are ok would be the next step. Seromas should not go untreated indefinitely.

DO NOT MASSAGE that breast, the causes of the swelling is intracapsular fluid, that may be:-serum, because of poor attachment of the implant to the capsule-milk, due to prolactine increase-puse, periprosthetic empiemaDo find a surgeon who makes the right diagnosis and applies the immediate right treatment. Seek opinions.

I agree with my colleagues. Seromas should be drained because they can increase the chance of you forming a capsular contracture. Please call your operating surgeon and ask to be seen immediately. Good luck!

 An untreated seroma after a breast augmentation increases the risk of capsular contracture in the future. Almost all should be surgically drained. Do you have a texturized implant?

Thanks for your question and photographs.  In some cases where patients have failed to respond to non surgical methods of treatment, it may be necessary to have the seroma surgically drained. A seroma that has been present since late November is now unlikely to respond to non surgical treatment.  As seroma can increase the risk of infection, rotation and capsular contraction. Its important you arrange a review with a fully qualified plastic surgeon to discuss your options.

You need immediate operative drainage of the fluid collection...Plus the %s of cc are now very high. Why the delay in operative intervention???
