Answer: Revision Probably the best way to address this area is by re-excision, revision of the breast reduction. The scars are wide and pigmented. The only way to get rid of them is to cut them out.

Answer: Dark spot Thanks for the question and photo. Now that ten years have past, your tissues should be a lot more loose, allowing the dark skin to be removed with a scar revision. This will allow you to replace the dark tissue with the lighter skin of your breast. I suggest you find a board certified Plastic Surgeon to help you achieve your goals. Good luck!

Answer: Areola in scars? If you had very large areola and they could not completely be removed during the reduction,. they often end up adjacent to the vertical closure. At ten years out, my guess is a scar revision may be reasonable to remove them. Best to be seen in person.

Answer: Scar revision after breast surgery You certainly have prominent widened scars. Tattooing won't be an option here as its impossible to make the dark skin lighter. My recommendation would be to undergo a revision to your breast reduction where your present scars are removed and improved and also a further tightening or lifting of your breasts into a more rejuvenated position can be undertaken. However, its difficult to tell from your photographs alone as to whether you would be an ideal candidate and an opinion from a fully board certified plastic surgeon will be required.
