What can I do about these hideous weird shaped nipple scars? (Photos)

June 5, 2018
Asked By:XiaoyuX in Los Angeles, CA

I had tuberous breast and got them corrected with a mild lift on both nipples. Im starting to hate the shape and ridges the scaring has created. I wish I had never done it. I use scar away strips EVERDAY for the past year and its made the scaring less "THICK" and the pink discoloration is gone but there is this hard ridged edge around my nipples that looks horrible. Is there something I can do about this?
