Asked By:unhappy 0202020 in Melbourne, AU

These are my scars 6 months after breast reduction. They are extremely painful and think and raised. I don't normally scar like this, and have never had scars like this before after surgery. What could have gone wrong. Also the scars are not in the inframammary fold, and I thought they were going to be. Is this type of scarring normal 6 months after breast reduction surgery?
