Hello, I had two accessory nipples removed exactly 16 weeks ago now. The scars seem to be fading a bit but not as much as I thought they would be by now. I’ve attached pictures. Do you think that these will eventually fade and turn white? The whole point of getting the accessory nipple removal was because they bothered me aesthetically, but now these scars are no better. I have been religiously using SkinMedica’s scar recovery gel twice daily. Thanks for your support!
