1 year post-op, breasts still seem a little boxy, and scar is a little indented (photo)

Asked By:Sociable120807 in Hagerstown, Maryland

I got my reduction on 3/8/24. And it went fine. Had a small infection on one nipple. But other than that went great. Went from 36H to like 36D now. And I feel like they’re still kinda boxy and one has an indent on the bottom where the scar is. Will this settle eventually? Or will I need to go see a surgeon?
