Necrosis Started Right After Surgery, Is This Normal?

It's been 7 months & skin on the bottom of aereola is very thin, was peeling. Gets better? I had a facelift at the same time. Sides of my face still feel like someone is pulling my ears back.

Questions after surgery

It sounds like you have a lot of questions about your surgeries. I need a lot more information and photos to address each question you have, and some may only be answerable by your own surgeon. If possible, ask one question at a time, and include more history about why you had the procedure and how it healed, what you think you had done, etc. It looks like the right breast areola in particular had some trouble healing and now you have scar tissue, which... more
