After three weeks, I am growing concerned with the results of my surgery. My left breast is healing abnormally. The nipple is curving inward, and the concave does not seem to be improving. I have reached out to my doctor with little answers. I need a second opinion. This is beginning to affect my mental health. I also still have a lot of laxity in my breast. Are surgeons supposed to tighten the skin too? Is the incision I received standard? What is the technical term for the incision?
