I'm 21 days PO. I had a full anchor lift with implant replacement from 339cc silicon to 600cc silicone and underneath my left breast there's a small patch of skin that's not flat like the other scars. I'm wondering if this is normal & if it will flatten out itself or if it's something to be concerned about? It doesn't hurt or itch and it's not hard. Someone said it might be keloiding?

Answer: Scars Best to see your PS or anothe one to evaluate these incisions and offer scar therapy. I use silicone sheets, mederma, and red laser therapy sessions. .

Answer: Scars under the breasts Thanks for the question. Surgical scars clearly change over a period of time after surgery has been performed. Your scars are not perfectly flat, but rarely are this soon after surgery was performed. I use scar fade as a topical product after surgery, but there are many approaches that can be followed, and many times scars will simply get better over time. I would always advise you to see your Plastic Surgeon for an opinion and direction if you have a concern.Good luck to you.Frank Rieger MD. Tampa Plastic Surgeon
