Are These Scars Normal for 3 Months Post-BA? (photo)

Although most of my breast augmentations are performed with minimal incisions placed under the arm or around the areola, some patients elect to have their incisions under the breast. It looks as though you've got nice healing after three months. It may take up to a full year before the incisions lighten up so they are much less noticeable. There are silicone pads and products such as ScarGuard and BioCream that seem to reduce redness and speed healing to incisions. You may wish to ask your surgeon about the use of these or other products he/she recommends.

Thanks for your question and picture.  Your scar appears to be healing well at this time.  Scars take up to a year to fully mature.  The color fades slowly during that time period.  As long as the scar is flat and thin, it should heal well long-term.
 

   Scars are usually red at 3 months in most individuals.  The pigmentation should reduce with time over the course of one year.  Ask your surgeon if he or she recommends any type of scar care in particular.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
