I had Gynecomastia surgery 8 months ago. As you can see from my photos I have developed internal scar tissue. My nipples are puffier than they we're before my operation. I can feel that the scar under my left nipple is no bigger than my areola in diameter, where as my right is significantly larger in diameter but slightly flatter and slightly less noticeable. Why? What are my options? Is cortisone injections a good option? If I re-excise wont the scarring just reappear? Please help!
