Is It Normal to Have Scars This Bad 11 Months Post Op? Why Are my Nipples Flat Now? (photo)

Savanna9
Hi I had a breast lift and implants 11 months ago. The scars are so ugly and embarrassing. Will they ever get better with time, or is treatment the only answer? And how much better? I can't ever go brawless because around the areola's the scar is raised and show's through my shirt. Also I used to have nice protruding nipples before my surgery, and now they are flat. Which I hate. Will they begin to protrude again with time? Thanks you!!
