Breast Lift and Scars

Farbod Esmailian, MD answers: Risk of getting keloid scars from breast lift?

I am interested in breast lift surgery. I'm wondering, will I have a high chance of having keloid scars on my breasts, seeing that both my C-sections had thick, bumpy scars?

Everyone heals differently and every area on a persons body heals differently.  So it is hard to draw conclusion based on your c-section area.

The key is to take good care of your scars, keep them out of the sun and treatment with products such as silicone tape or paper tape during the first year.

Hope that helps.
