There is no way to 'remove' a breast lift scar or any scar for that matter. There are many techniques that can lessen or camouflage the appearance of a scar. Most scars will mature over time and improve. The trick of plastic surgery is to place the incisions in locations that are know to heal well. In general I would wait at least 6 months and sometimes up to one year until you consider any invasive form of scar revision including laser. I have never been impressed with the use of lasers for improvement of a scar. Better techniques included surgical scar revision and some times the injection of a steroid into the scar. If your scar is relatively new, less than 3 months then vigorous massage is indicated. I generally keep my incisions taped for the first 3 - 4 weeks this has been shown to decrease the degree of tension on the incision and lessen the degree of scarring.
