Could it also be a suture?

Four months is a long time for what sounds like a small area of non-healing.  We tend to use Silvadene cream as our preferred treatment whn there is some tissue necrosis. It keeps the area clean and moist and promotes healing.  I wonder whehther a permanent suture could be the cause of non-healing. You can easily find out from your surgeon.  Fat necrosis is possible, although the areas of fat necrosis end up being very hard and do heal.

Any pressure on the area from a bra that rides up will tend to keep the wound from healing.  Hang in there and keep your doctor posted.
