How can I reduce or remove scars under my armpits? (photos)

kelleygastelum
11 years ago I had extra breast tissue removed under my armpits. Previously my armpits had a lot of breast tissue that looked like a ball of fat. Not only was I self conscious about my armpit fat they also were very physically uncomfortable. when I would get my period the armpit breast balls would swell and get sore like my regular breasts so a doctor recommended I have the extra breast tissue removed. Little did I know I would be left with these deep dark scars. Please tell me there's hope?!
