They haven’t always been like this and it is a semi recent change. I was wondering if anyone could tell me why this would happen and if I should be worried. This has also been accompanied by tenderness and a lump under both of the nipples. I am on no medication.

The permanent stitch can be released. It is unlikely that at 3 years post op the scar will widen. You can then undergo a repeat donut mastopexy. However, you have asymmetrical nipple-areola complexes. You would benefit from revising both nipple-areola complexes.

Dear Elliebell,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

It appears that you have inverted nipple. Usually reason for that are short and dysfunctional milk ducts. Surgical correction may help. In person consultation with a plastic surgeon with experience in this problem is recommended. Good luck.
