Best to contact your surgeon!
I did tell her, on day 3 after surgery and she said it’s ok, externally it appears fine. now that it’s just about completely healed, she just said massage the firmer area. My husband has been trying to tell me since it happened (when getting dressed after surgery) that it was really just ripping tape and we can fix it later if it’s bothering me, I do need to lose 100lbs, so if that ever really happens for me, then at that time fix it , if I have any problems with either breast.
