Pink light scar on nipple turned red? (Photo)

Question

Hello! I had a ba 2 months ago with a areolar lift . My scars were a light Pink around the areola and healing pretty well, but yesterday I went out for a drink and had sex. Now I have dark red dots around my nipples and I dont understand why? Have I ruined the chances of having nice looking scars? What could of caused that sudden change in Color ? I am worried :(

I have
to say that you are still early on healing process, it is too soon to determine
how your results are going to be, per now, they look very nice and beautiful,
you can have one bigger than the other, it is normal and that can happen for
the first 3 months until your implants have settle in. I recommend you to wait
and keep using your post surgical bra, that will help you with the shape and
support. Hugs!

Its possible you irritated your nipples during sex but if you are concerned you should arrange a review with your surgeon.

Robert H. Hunsaker, MD · Answer

You may have a few scattered sutures that have started to expose which can happen. It would be best to see your surgeon for an evaluation.

Since you have a noticeable change with your nipple and areola, I would recommend you see your surgeon for an evaluation.
