I'd like a second opinion: How would you treat a reaction to stitches and have you see this reaction before? (Photos)

I am 3 weeks post breast lift, and believe I am having a reaction to the stitches. At 2 weeks, my incisions started filling up with fluid and redness around the incision. In some spots it feels like there is space/void. I am on antibiotics and antihistamines and my PS nurse trimmed some splitting surges. Will this resolve with time or will I need to intervene sooner and remove some stitches under this fluid? I am meeting with my surgeon regularly, I am just wondering what others have seen.
