6 weeks post op for breast lift. To date all has been well. Left nipple now has a vertical strip approx 3mm wide running down along the inside section that has lost colour (turned white) and hardened. The Suture line looks healthy. Is this normal or cause for concern?

Thanks for the question. You are a good candidate for an breast lifting procedure. As you have enough breast tissue, gel-filled anatomical implants about 250-350cc can be used. Using implants will be the best decision for you. I wish you all the best.
I perform so many variations of breast lift, and I adjust the scar pattern to each patient's anatomy to achieve the best result for that patient. This is all intuitive for me, and your result will be more an issue of execution by the surgeon you select.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
A breast lift may be a reasonable option
just based upon your pictures, but an exam will be necessary to make a
determination. Find an expert in breast surgery in your
area who has great reviews and great before and after photos.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
