    Hi girls,

    My right breast has always been behind my left in relation to healing. My left incision is smooth and sits perfectly in my crease, however my right is lumpy and there’s a strange line above it.

    Does anyone know if this looks like rippling or whether it’s hysr caused by the lumpy incision?

    Thank you xx

    That’s the wrong place to get rippling, it’s usually at the top or sides where the bag is not full (gravity and all). So I would say that’s just the scar tissue or internal stitching. It will soften in time, it looks great at 4.5 weeks!

    I had exact same at about 2 weeks PO and really started panicing! I’m just over 4 weeks and it’s settled loads. It’s now only lumpy to touch which is the stitches inside that haven’t healed yet. Give it time and you’ll be fine :)Xx
