Can These Breast Reduction Scars Be Repaired? (photo)

My reduction was done two years ago and I went from a G to a DD. After my breast reduction, I asked the doctors office about the scars (raised and widening) and got tired old: "They'll lightenup and flatten out." . I have a raised scar and the aerola is stretched. The vertical scars are discolored and stretched. I think they look chewed up and awful. I don't want to see the original surgeon as the trust is gone. Is there anything I can do? I feel so disfigured.
