SOS Avoiding Bad Scars for African American Breast Lift and Implants. Will an Internal Lift Do It? (photo)

Hi I wanted to know will an internal lift and implant work for me. I scar bad and I don't want the bad incisions. I don't care how big I have to go to avoid them. I'm willing to travel and I will post before and after pics of my progress and post them (2wks,2mths,etc.) to help others. If I have to get them do anyone have pics of african american breast lift that droops like mine and their scars? I've looked everywhere and still havent seen one that didnt look nasty. S.O.S please help!
