How do you avoid hyperpigmentation after breast lift and augmentation? Is there any way I can minimize the hyperpigmentation?

Asked By:UnbotheredXx in Columbus, OH

I am a 21 year old African American woman and am looking into receiving a breast lift with implants. I scar very dark even after minor trauma to the skin (a small pimple) and it stays dark and discolored after months. Realistically, what should I expect in terms of scarring from a lift? Is there any way I can minimize the hyperpigmentation that would more than likely occur?
