Dark pigmented spot on areola after mastopexy? (Photos)

I had a pigmented spot show up on my areola about 9 months after my breast lift. It has grown in size and is textured. I've had it about 2 years now. I saw my primary care doctor about it initially who said to just keep an eye on it. Any ideas what this might be? I don't have insurance so I'm hesitant to schedule a derm appt. I also have a lot of hormone issues/fluctuations.
