Irregular Shaped Areola After Lift, Will It Heal Normal? (photo)

Congratulations on having undergone the breast surgery recently; based on your pictures it is not appear that you are experiencing any major complication. You are correct in that it is too early to evaluate the final aesthetic results of the surgery.  I would suggest that you be patient and evaluate the results of surgery many months (even up to one year) from now. Worse case  scenario may be that minor revisionary surgery will be necessary to improve the shape/symmetry of the areola.

 I hope this helps.

   Incision separation after breast lift usually heals without any adverse consequence.   Contour irregularities following breast lift are usually more pronounced in the early postoperative period when swelling is more prominent.

Hello,

Thank you for the question and photos.  I think most will agree that there appears to be some separation of the skin at the border of the areola and breast skin.  I cannot be certain why this is from the photos alone.  Having your plastic surgeon take a look and make sure that there is not something that he/she needs to do to improve the healing process.

All the best,

Dr Remus Repta
