Breast reduction t-junction scars. Any suggestions/ (photos)

January 5, 2016
Asked By:misspositivity in London, GB

I had my breast reduction about five months ago. The healing has been great but now I found my t junction scars to be very thick and lumpy. I've looked at many different scars and found one similar but mine is very saw and red and I wonder what could be wrong.
