I’m 1 month PO breast lift with implant. Now that the scabs have come off my nipple is very discolored. Did I do something wrong to make them heal this way? Will this improve as the scars heal or this permanent?

Answer: Pigmentation Have you spoken to your surgeon about this? This is the natural course of healing. It is more noticeable in people of color because of the juxtaposition of darker skin/melanin content. You'll slowly see your own pigment come in. It will take months. I advise you to keep in close contact with your surgeon and to attend your postoperative visits. S/he should be more than happy and able to answer this type of question at those visits which are included in the fee you paid.
