I had a breast lift revision in 2019 due to contracture. The areola is pinched at bottom leaving. Small gap making the areola an open circle when standing up. What are options? Will scar revision correct this without doing Damage to the lift? Please advise. I had genesis laser dotted on the tiny space but it did nothing.

Answer: Recommend starting Vbeam laser to defuse redness and CO2 laser to help with the scarring Plastic surgery scars require attention after surgery so that they remain cosmetically-appealing and barely noticeable. In our office, we use a protocol for scars that minimizes their activity in the 6-8 weeks after surgery. If you have late plastic surgery scars, you may also require laser and RF therapy to help reduce the longterm effects of the scarring. Keloids, hypertrophic scars, widened scars, red scars, and hyperpigmented scars all require scar modulation with topical creams followed by lasers and RF therapy. Topical skincare should be directed to a specific need, whether for pigmentation or hypertrophy and our office can guide you through the process to obtain the correct Plato’s Scar cream or Melarase cream for hypertrophy and discoloration. In terms of lasers, we would employ the vbeam laser for redness, Venus Viva RF, PRP microneedling, chemical peels, and Morpheus 8, fractional erbium, or fractional co2. All of these have their individual benefits. Most of all, we recommend you visit a solid plastic surgeon who understands surgical scar revision, laser therapy, and RF therapy for scars.

Answer: Will scar revision on the areola to repair the bottom center opening damage my breast lift connection? Thank you for your questions. I think that based on your photo, you have a reasonable outcome from what you are describing. Do not chase perfect and end up causing a worse problem. I think a tattoo option might be better for correcting pigment issues and shape/contour than a surgical revision.
