Is There Any Kind of Treatment for Keloids (Scar) After You Get a Breast Augmentation? I had a breat augmentation and didn't scar or develop a keloid the first time. I healed very well; however, I went bigger the second time (apparently, the doctor will go over the same incision). I am 2 months and 1 week in my healing. Now, it appears that I am developing/developed a keloid. During my healing process I used Mederma, as I did with the first augmentation. Is there any kind of treatment for keloids under the breast that will show good results? Thank you

A: Treatment options for hypertrophic scarring

At two months post op and without a photograph it is impossible to determine if you are actually developing a keloid scar or if it is part of the normal healing process. A keloid is a healing abnormality. A keloid scar grows outside of the edges of a normal scar and will actually destroy the normal surrounding skin. It is also possible that you have a hypertrophic scar that is due to excessive tension on the scar. There are treatments for each type. You need to be evaluated to determine the best treatment option.

A: Revision surgery from breast augmentation

Without a photo and a better description it is not possible to determine what happened and the extent of your problem. It sounds like you had some degree of capsular contracture. If this is the case then it can be corrected with a revision procedure

Lip Piercing Scar Removal? Is It Possible to Remove or REDUCE a Scar Left by a Past Piercing? I had gotten my bottom left lip pierced in early 2007. I removed the jewelry about fourteen months later, around mid 2008, and I noticed that a scar was left behind. I'd like to know if there is some surgical procedure that can REDUCE or remove (somewhat) this scar? Please be straight forward with me, I don't mind. There is only one picture that I've took in order to give you all a closer look at what I want changed. Sincerely, Drew.

A: Lip Piercing Scar

Once you have a scar, you will always have a scar. The goal of the plastic surgeon is to make the scar less noticeable. In your case, you have an indented scar from the piercing. This scar could be cut out in a fashion that would leave you with only a thin flat scar rather than an indented one which should be less noticeable. The procedure could be done under local anesthesia in an office setting.
