Will the Breast Appearance Continue to Be Smooth or Will It Distort Around the Lift Scars?

Hi, I have an old vertical c section scar that will be removed as part of a mommy makeover. With a breast lift will the breast shape distort around the scars as with a vertical c-section?

Updated Information:

Please Let me clarify about the scars distortion with a breast lift. If I gain weight in my breast after a breast lift, will the fat deposit around the scars similar to that in a vertical breast lift?

A: C section is probably not an accurate representation of your scaring

In the case of a C-section, especially an emergency C-section, the obstetrician's attention is obviously directed somewhere else than the cosmesis of your scar. Often in these cases, the scar gets tethered to the underlying fascia resulting in a pulling, depressed scar. In the case of a breast lift, we can worry more about your scars and take the time to do things to make them as good as possible. Does that guarentee good scars? No, but I wouldn't use your C-section scar to judge.

I Recently Had Implants Removed. I'm Considering a Lift. How Long Should I Wait Before Deciding?

I Recently Had Implants Removed. I'm Considering a Lift. How Long Should I Wait Before Deciding?

A: No perfect time

I would wait until the skin is done retracting which should be a month or so.

Good luck with your decision.
