6 weeks post-op: I was a small 36B and now a 36D/DD, they were asymmetrical before -- what are these lumps? (Photos)

thanks for your questionyou are very early days following your surgery and I am sure things will settle. You will probably be seeing your surgeon this week - they almost certainly will reassure you all is OKGood luck in your recovery!

Thanks for the question. Lumps in your scar at day 10 are almost certainly the knots of the suture material used to close the incisions. They should disappear with time as the suture material dissolves. The most commonly used suture material for this purpose in the UK is monocryl, which takes around 120 days to fully dissolve.

The lumps seem to be caused by surfacing sutures. You are still very early in the healing process and based on the photo you don't seem to be developing complications. Be sure to follow your surgeon's instructions and adhere to them tightly for a smooth recovery.

Thanks for the great question. Those lumps are likely knots you can see and feel from the sutures which are inside the skin hold the incision together. It can often times take a few months for the suture to dissolve, but the lumps will eventually go away. Congratulations on your surgery!Best,~Dr. Sieber

Hello,
The incision wound when it heals becomes a scar.Sometime some area of this  scar is thicker then other areas .Scar is thicker where it took longer time to heal as compared to other areas.
What I can see that the scar is thicker at one place and this must be last area to have healed last.
I normally treat entire scar length by a silicone sheet for at least first 4 months after surgery.If your PS wants it you can do as well the same.
I wish you all the best.
