i had breast reduction surgery a year year and a half ago and since then have had dark patches of skin around the scars... i am very self conscious about this and was wondering what caused it and what i can do to help it?
Well certain racial types are prone to hyperpigmentation; Asians, Filipinos, and Afro-Americans all are at higher risk. The healing phase created more pigment in your scars. Treating these scars EARLY with Broad Band Light and a 515 filter would have helped them originally. Now the problem is more difficult. Bleaching creams have a marginal history at best. Check with your local Dermatologists in your home town they may be able to direct you.
I am mildly dysphoric about my breasts and rather want a breast reduction taking my large-C-cup breasts to a manageable A-cup. I am 18 and want to know if it is true that I need to go to a therapist for permission to get this procedure. I have talked to several friends, all saying that although I have no desire to have any other procedure other than reduction done, I will be recommended to see a therapist to be checked for mental disorders and then denied treatment based on the diagnosis.
WOW, How insightful of you to know the warning signs. Many surgeons out there don't even have this insight. Doing an operation and needing an operation are 2 very different things. You state you are a C and only 18. I may understand this more if you were a double D. Get the therapy and let a few years go by.
Can I go a few hours a day without a surgical or sports bra?
How long ago was your surgery? I am wondering why you want to have it off for a few hours since most patients feel more comfortable with it on for support. I would make sure that it is not rubbing you anyplace that is causing discomfort. I have seen blisters occur because the bra is pinching or too tight in certain areas. Sometimes you are numb on the outside of the breasts and cannot tell that you are developing a problem. In sum, take it off to examine your skin and then follow your surgeon's instructions from there.
