Graphic photo - 2nd day after mastectomy - is this normal?

Hi everyone, I was hoping to get some advice. I had a single skin/nipple sparing mastectomy 2 days ago (16th April), with an expander. I’ve just had a look and it looks terrible. I don’t mind ...

@Skbr the redness looks normal to me. Here are my photos
Second photo is day 1 post surgery first photo was day 4.
Hang in there! 
Take the pain meds when you need them.
The endone made me hazy but you can ask for just panadol if you dont like the scattered feeling.
Sending love.
