I had a BA/BL in March2017. Had open wound been taking care of that but now the skin on the nipple is lighter almost the color of my skin. Is this necrosis? What can be done?

No posted before & after photos... So can only recommend you return to see your chosen operative surgeon, Dr Krau to discuss. Or seek paid in person second opinions from boarded PSs.
It may be fluid trapped between the incision and a steri strip or may be a small blister along the incision also from steris or other adhesive strips. Usually this does not represent an infection. However, let your surgeon know so he can decide whether this needs to be treated.
Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done for stretch marks. There are lots of creams and lasers or other devices that claim to improve them but none of them actually work. Best not to waste your money. They can potentially be camouflaged by a really good medical tattooist who could...
