5 months po, is it normal to still have big red raised scars around areolas? Like my nipples have "slid off" somewhat? (Photo)

Asked By:Chloeisawesome in Lafayette, LA

Looks like my nipples have stretched from my breasts some and are attached by wide red ropey scars. I have always taped, bio oiled, cocoa buttered, silicone sheeted, silicone gelled- (broke me out). I don't see my scars fading anytime soon! I'm so sad. And the areola/nipple area is so sensitive! Any advice??
