Follow-up: update on breast. Is this necrosis? Will I need a skin graft to try to finally look normal? (Photos)

Asked By:pinkerz123 in Los Angeles, CA

This is what my areola looks like now, continuing proper wound cleaning and antibiotics. I see my ps twice a week and it seems like there's no infection. Any Thoughts of the progress or no progress. Any thoughts on skin grafting?
