Doctor’s answers
Mar 17, 2013
According to the photo I think it can be anomalous scarring, or inflammatory bump/node due to suture or graft protusion/extrusion.
Good luck!

-anatomic implant (teardrop)
-submuscular (dual I-II)(behind muscle)
-inframammary incision
-silicone implant (cohesive gel; f.e. Allergan’s “Soft Touch / TRU FORM 2”)
-textured implants
In the other hand, photos are not quite good… I think that there is a slight asymmetry that will need to be corrected.
A proper exam with a board certified Plastic Surgeon will definitely give the correct decision.
Good luck!

Delayed reconstructive option can be -probably- aritmetically more accurate, but, I think it is psychologically not appropiate.
Good luck!

I think that your nipples are displaced slightly downward, so the best option would be a breast augmentation using Anatomical Shaped implants, subfascial. In this manner your surgery would be performed with “only” ONE scar (hemi-periareolar or inframammary). Allergan (Natrelle) Style 410 implants are a nice choice (cohesive gel Tru Form 2 or 3). With subfascial placement of teardrop implants, double-bubble effect would be avoided.
In case we use…

Certainly your implants look excesively high. It’s too soon to make a decision; you must with 4-5 months…
Apart from this, I think:
-your breasts would need a lift in a near future (nipple-areola complex is too near to IMF -inframammary fold-)
-Implants are too big to be “round”; with anatomic-shaped implants (the implant tip projection point is lower than in a rounded implant. In this manner you can obtain the same or slightly bigger projection, with less…

I think that your concerns related to “double-bubble” problem are correct. If implants are placed in a subglandular (sub-fascial) plane, you’ll avoid this possible complication in a near future.
If you combine it wit placing anatomical-shaped cohesive gel implants -f.e. Natrelle (Allergan) Style 410MF120295 or 410MM125320- the final results will be very natural and pleasing. Round implants with volumes over 300cc, when placed in a subglandular…

It’s not very important; tissues may heal completely (with proper care). My advice is to let everithing heal completely (9-12 months) and if needed, in this moment, perform a scar revision surgery.
During this time, your plastic surgeon will give you the best advices to properly treat your incisions/scars. Usually, sunscreens and silicone gel topical sheets do a…
