Third nipple removal now or later? Scar concern (Photo)

August 27, 2020
Asked By:yramalev in Monterrey, MX

I'm considering getting it removed but I'm worried about the scar. I thought maybe in the future if/when I get a breast augmentation and the incision is under my boob, it'll take care of it all together however I'm not sure if it's in the right position since it is lower than my actual boob. how noticeable is the scar? I tend to get hyperpigmentation after some type of cut so obviously a surgery incision will definitely leave a mark. should I go a dermatologist or plastic surgeon?
