Will my areola pigment heal after breast reduction surgery discoloration? (Photos)

Yeara25
It’s been 2 weeks since my surgery. I noticed that my left areola was heavily scabbed. Didn’t think much of it until the scabs started to come off. My surgeon advised to apply bacitracin with a non stick gauze. I’m just concerned that once’s it’s healed there will be a huge difference in pigment.
