Do my incisions look normal? (Photo)

Asked By:melimel7777 in Ann Arbor, MI

Hello, I just had breast augmentation on March 8th and the incision was around the nipple. I'm concerned because the incision seems to go somewhat past the nipple on each breast. The left side seems to have huge stitches. I'm worried about walking around with scarred breast. I'm not a surgeon and I know I haven't healed completely but the incision looks a little sloppy to me. Can someone tell me if this was done correctly and does it look like it may leave severe scarring?I'm an aesthetician by the way and from the looks of it, I may be able to fade the discoloration out. However, the way it's cut looks as though it could leave a pretty nasty scar. It seems as if the incision should have been thinner and shorter and more of a half moon around the nipple. I viewed the surgeons previous clients and none of them had any scarring. Maybe I am just worried. Can someone give me some advice from a professional standpoint? Other than that I like everything else. I'm just worried about visible scarring. I don't want to walk around with butchered [RS bleep]!
