I am 2 years post op and this permanent stitch started popping out about 6 mos ago. This is the revision scar. It doesn't hurt. I don't want it to stay like this but I'm afraid to remove it because it was placed due to spreading after the original surgery. I don't want the areola to spread again. What kind of laser do I need for the pigmentation? I cannot go back to the original surgeon.

If implants are not added and a lift is done, you should do well with dissolving sutures since there would be no reason for your breasts to stretch and the lift will support the sagging breasts.
