Keloid around the areola after breast augmentation procedure? Am I gonna lose sensitivity in my areola and nipples? (photo)

Your scar does appear a bit thick.  There are a number of options that could help.  Using silicone sheeting can help flatten the scars over time.  It may take 12 weeks or so to see real improvement.  Steroid injections can also flatten a scar, but they tend to make the scar spread due to thinning of the tissue.  A surgical revision, where the scar is completely removed and then closed, is probably your best option.  After the revision, I would recommend using a good scar cream like Biocorneum or silicone sheeting immediately to prevent a recurrence of the thick scar.  I do not think you'll have any further issues with numbness after a scar revision -- the nerve issues you had after surgery were likely due to the placement of the implant and not the areolar incision.  Best of luck!

Hello- thanks for your question and posting photos. 
You photo is more suggestive of a hypertrophic scar than a keloid. They can be thought of as being similar, though hypertrophic scars tend to improve over time. 
Since you are over one year out, it is possible to do a scar revision though you may consider other treatments first. Using steroid injections into the scar can help improve the appearance. In addition, I suspect further improvement with time alone. None of these treatments should lead to any loss of sensation in the nipple. 
Consider seeing your plastic surgeon for an in person exam and discussion of possible treatments.

Hello,Your scar is hypertrophic, not Keloid.  Revising the scar will not cause you to loose sensitivity, but you're at high risk of another scar.  This is one of the many problems associated with circumareolar lifts. If your surgeon isn't an ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeon, you should seek out a second opinion with a few who are. Best of luck!

Dear Zazzy40,keloid scar can be improved using steroid injections. In some cases, scar revision surgery is indicated. But any surgical procedure performed on your areola has a possibility of nipple numbness. If you are considering any procedure,  I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Looks like you had a "doughnut lift" or peri-areolar lift.  Unfortunately thick and raised scars are not uncommon after this type of procedure.  Here are the treatment options:1.injection of the scars to help flatten them. 2. Silicone scar tape for your scars3. Scar revision surgery. It is unlikely to cause change is sensation

Having a scar revision will not leave you with no sensitivity as most of the areola and nipple nerves come from deep in the breast upwards. You can try some silicone treatments (gel or tape) but after this amount of time a revision and then use of silicone will be best.

If the scar is still red which would mean it is not totally matured, many times steroid injections can be done.  Otherwise, revision surgery may be needed.
