Is it normal that my breast lift scars look worst 6 weeks post op than they did right after surgery? (photos)

I appreciate your question.

Yes this is normal as scars go through different stages of healing.  Discuss with your plastic surgeon different treatment options available and see what he she prefers for you  Some examples are silicone gel sheeting, cordran tape, biocorneum.



The best way to assess and give
true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified
plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.

Best of luck!

Yes, it is quite normal for scars to look worse, before they look better. The use of silicone gel to sheeting may be very helpful;  I especially like the use of silicone sheeting for patients who have a place previous history of abnormal scarring. Discuss its use with your plastic surgeon. Best wishes.
