5 months post Breast Lift, areola's are turning dark and shedding skin, what could be happening? (photos)

I appreciate your question.



The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.  Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic plastic surgery.



 



Best of luck!

Healing will go on for 2-3 months for the early
period. There may be some swelling, bruising, malposition, color differences.
Sensation will be abnormal. Scars will be changing.If my patients have concerns that something is unusual
about their healing process, it is important for them to call the office and discuss
these concerns or come in to be examined. Now, since it has been more than three months since your procedure it would be a good idea to take your concerns to your surgeon to make sure that healing is going well or if something needs to be done for revision.

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. I'm very sorry to hear that you're not happy with your surgery results, besides that they seems to look ok, I totally understand the areola issue, it is true that they have a red tone and pigmentation, will be better for you to get to your surgeon, I don't think it's necrosis, but oxygen treatments helps a lot during healing process and to prevent any necrosis too.
