Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon

Francisco Canales, MD answers: Decreasing scar size from breast augmentation?

I had a DD tuberous breast and a barely A cup when I was fourteen. To make them even I got a saline breast implant in one breast and had reconstructive/reduction surgery on the other at age 16. Based on the photos I have seen, it seems like my surgeon did a messy job. I have two huge indented scars at the bottom/center of my nipple and breast, and thick scars around my nipple. I tried vitamin E oil and the scars are still extremely noticeable. Is there anything I can do to make the scars less noticeable?

Hello

Without seeing you in person for an evaluation, it is hard to make recommendations.  Indented scars can sometimes be revised, but the best way to find out is to have a thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area.
