What are my best nonsurgical options for breast reduction scars? (Photos)

Keloid and hypertrophic scars usually go through a stage of active inflammation. This process can be modulated to prevent bad scarring. In my office, we specialize in scarring formed by keloids and hypertrophic scars. Our approach is combination therapy, known as HIDEf treatment, which incorporates lasers, laser assisted delivery of corticosteroids, vascular therapy, and resurfacing. This can help reduce inflammation and scarring alongside the application of scar gels including Plato’s Scar Serum and Melarase PM.

Dear unicorn135,
I understand you are concerned with the appearance of your scars. As your scars heal, it should flatten out and lighten. Loss of pigmentation or hyperpigmentation may also be experienced but will resolve over time. Always follow your surgeon's post operative care instructions when it comes to scar management to avoid any complications like infection and for faster healing and recovery.
