Dark spot in scar, what could it be?

Janegrace23
Im 4.5 post mastopexy. I had s hematoma complication in this breast. Ive had it drained 3 times now so hoping that it is now. I have noticed in the last few days these darker spots appear in my nipple incision. This was the breast with the hematoma. It was all around /behind the nipple. I sent pics to surgeon but he wont see it until Monday (its Friday afternoon here). Any thoughts on what it could be? There is some pain still in my breasts, especially this breast/nipple
