My breast augmentation scars, located in the crease, are flat but still very dark and noticeable at 5.5 months out. They don't seem to have lightened at all from the 2 month mark, based on a comparison of photographs. In fact, they look almost darker. Am I just a slow healer, or will scar revision be necessary? I have been using silicone gel on my scars for 1.5 months with no visible results. I am satisfied with the results of my operation but the scarring is disheartening. Any chance it will fade?
