I had a breast reduction October 24th and my dr used the technique that leaves an anchor shaped scar. Around my nipple, down my breast, and then under my breast. He said it is a very common technique. But it has left me with sort of, squarish shaped breast? Which has made me really self conscious. Do they go back to a normal shape of a breast once I begin wearing regular bras again? Or will they remain that shape? Also will an inverted nipple ever reverse? I know it's still soon but I need peace
