Is my nipple dying? And is my breast shape normal? (photo)

February 2, 2019

I just had breast reduction. I’m 10 days post op. I noticed one of my areolas has darkened a lot. Almost black. I’m worried if it’s dead or a scab?? It’s really dry and peeling a bit. Also will my breast not look so “boxy” over time, will they fill out more or will they stay like this for good??
