No longer wanted breasts that were implant full 34 C after BA (prior was small 34 B) and ended up 36 DD. Too large and uncomfortable. Also have numerous health issues, and contracted Lyme disease as well. Suffering from a rash, itching and low grade fever since removal was done 2 days ago. Does anyone know what would cause this? I have drains . Capsules were scored and left in place.

Sounds like some pretty miserable symptoms you were having! How are you feeling now that you're 3 days out? I hope you have a comfortable weekend. Be sure to rest a lot and please use this space to keep us updated.

Returned to see the PS on day 3 and we deduced that I didn't have any infection but an allergic reaction. Thanks for asking!! Day 5, rash is subsiding and I went on a walk. Not wearing a bra as PS recommends for incisions. No lifting over 10 pounds. Returning tomorrow to check out the rash. I didn't need to finish the antibiotics : )

Doing much better after explanation 5 days ago. Slight bruising and still have this allergic rash, no idea why that happened. Had a 99/100 F but that's gone now. Relieved that I didn't have any capsule contraction. Thrilled to be able to fit into my blouses without a gap!! : )). Sorry no pics, not sure how to post them

12 days post op, getting a little deflated. Have hard scar tissue forming around the incisions. What does one do for that?

Mine are 'ropey', as many others on here have reported. I use Vaseline on mine, a few times daily. Some people form what is called a keloid on scar tissue. Look that up and see if it matches what you are experiencing. Will you post pics?

I just moved the pictures off my phone into a folder cuz I didn't want anyone to accidentally see them. I think I figured out how to post now. I will try to post the scars etc. What is the "Title" , your onscreen name?Are you doing much massage?

Luci.ly, you should be able to click on the blue Luci.ly and it should take you to my page. I know what you mean about somebody accidentally seeing the pictures. I delete mine right away.

Hi poohthump, I am 5weeks post (56 years old, 18 year old implants). My incision started to get kind of hard and looked like it was starting to pull inward as well. The nurse at my PS office said to massage with castor oil to soften and then use a warm compress. I have been using emu oil daily and I think it's helping. I also massage oil on the breasts several times a day. Coconut, emu, grape seed, whatever I have.

Hey! It's been a year since you had your surgery. How are you doing today? It'd be great to hear from you again.
