Can a revision be done to hide/move anchor scars so they won't be visible from the front and side views of the breasts? (Photo)

Thank you for asking. Breast scar revision is possible. The incisions are typically in the fold and better hidden. Talk with your PS and ask why your case was so. Consider a second opinion. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

The issues that you are pointing out are indeed legitimate ones and they would require revision to achieve the results you are looking for.

Plastic surgery scars require attention after surgery so that they remain cosmetically-appealing and barely noticeable. In our office, we use a protocol for scars that minimizes their activity in the 6-8 weeks after surgery. If you have late plastic surgery scars, you may also require laser and RF therapy to help reduce the longterm effects of the scarring. Keloids, hypertrophic scars, widened scars, red scars, and hyperpigmented scars all require scar modulation with topical creams followed by lasers and RF therapy. Topical skincare should be directed to a specific need, whether for pigmentation or hypertrophy and our office can guide you through the process to obtain the correct Plato’s Scar cream or Melarase cream for hypertrophy and discoloration. In terms of lasers, we would employ the vbeam laser for redness, Venus Viva RF, PRP microneedling, chemical peels, and Morpheus 8, fractional erbium, or fractional co2. All of these have their individual benefits. Most of all, we recommend you visit a solid plastic surgeon who understands surgical scar revision, laser therapy, and RF therapy for scars.

Hello! Thank you for your question! I am sorry to hear of your complaints following your procedure. Incisions are designed to be inconspicuous and hidden within folds, creases, etc., in order to conceal the scars as best possible. Such incisions are attempted to be designed withing the inframammary fold, with good planning.   Certainly, breasts may bottom-out, which results in an inadvertent "high-riding incision", but usually over time, and not immediately post-procedure. It does appear that a revision of your bilateral breasts would meet your expectations for improved shape and better placement of your incisions.  I would discuss any concerns with your surgeon. Consideration for a scar revision may be entertained after several months' time to better hide your incisions, if desired. Hope that this helps.

Hello,There absolutely is a way to hide those scars better. Your result is not the norm, but it can be fixed. You are now four months from your procedure, and should be nearly healed.  Although it is merely arbitrary, 6 months would probably be safe to have a revision.  The surgery would involve removing both skin and tissue again in a way that would reposition your inframammary scar into the inframammary crease.Please visit a few ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeons that specialize in revision breast surgery.Best of luck!

I agree with you.  These are the best positioned scars however I don't see you before photos.  One can easily revise leaving you similar scars just in a more favorable position along the fold of the breast.  I would give it a few more months and then go ahead and revise the breast lift.  Best Wishes!!

Thanks so much for your question.  Based on your photos I would say that the scars could definitely be improved.  The horizontal scar is high in relation to your breast. This could be lowered so it's more hidden in the breast crease.  The vertical scar is always going to be visible but could possibly also be improved by making it thinner. Hope this helps. 

Hello dear, thanks for your
question and provided information as well..
The breasts may lose their elasticity and firmness which can be caused by
different factors such as pregnancy, massive weight loss, lactation and aging.
To reaffirm the breasts and restore the natural look your surgeon can perform a
mastopexy or breast lift. A breast lift restores a firmer, perkier, and more
aesthetically pleasing shape to sagging breasts. This not only can improve
a patient’s appearance by restoring her youthful, feminine proportions,
but also help bras and swimsuits fit more comfortably and attractively. By
removing excess, stretched out skin, reshaping the breast tissue, and raising
the nipple & areola into a more forward position, a cosmetic surgeon can create
a more youthful breast contour. Stretched, large areolae can also be
reduced during breast lift surgery, creating an overall better proportioned,
natural looking breast, Actually the perkiness on a person or another, depends
on patients skin and breast tissue
