Surgical revision after evaluation

Michael C. Edwards, 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?

At this point after your surgery, you should meet with a board-certified plastic surgeon to evaluate if a scar revision would help.

It may be a relatively straight-forward scar revision or they may recommend more extensive surgery to change what bothers you.
