HI, I got an anchor breast lift with 380cc saline implants 2 month ago and both of my breast are still red and throbbing pain sometimes. I never have a fever and took antibiotic for the first week after surgery . How can I detect if this is an infection or just normal recovery from the breast implants? Thanks

I agree with those noted below - a lift will help with the appearance of the torso. In conjunction with a 350-450 implant, depending on your tissue characteristics, it would hopefully satisfy your aesthetic goals. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss all of...
It is absolutely common, and perhaps expected, to have different types of pain sensations in each breast. This usually settles down by about six weeks, or even up to three months.
Thank you for your question. The answer will vary depending on whom you ask. In my practice, I will start around 1-2 weeks after surgery as long as there are no areas of delayed healing. Week 4 is not unreasonable. Good luck.
