Asked By:dmh27123 in Florida, FL

Hello, I've had gyno surgey almost 7 weeks ago. No Lipo. Never given vest. All I am worried about are the indentations. I feel as if they're getting worse. 2 weeks in (5 wks ago), the General Surgeon sucked out some fluid due to swelling. Today, I am just worried about the indents as they seem to have gotten worse the last couple weeks. 1. Will they heal on their own? 2. I am big into working out. Will chest exercises help improve the indents? I've been messaging/rolling nips almost every day.
