Is my incision placement normal and would I benefit from a scar revision? 6 months post op (photos)

Asked By:Friendly465517 in Charleston, South Carolina

I had a lift 6 months ago and need to get scar recision. They are extremely visable and restrict me from wearing many of the things I got this done to wear in the first place. The incisions under the breast look very high to me. Is that normal? The Dr has said this is how my body unfortunately healed but I would love a second opinion as I sadly regret ever doing this.
