Horrendous scars after Benelli lift - can anything be done? (photo)

Asked By:NipTuckWhatsUp in San Francisco, CA

I had a Benelli lift/areloa reduction 1 year ago. Shortly after surgery, large scabs formed as the areola separated from the breast (deep sutures only with tape outside) which eventually turned to scars. I asked my dr. and he said this was perfectly normal. 6 months ago I inquired again as the scars weren't improving & he told me to wait a full year. I've had a number of procedures w/out any issues and my skin has never had trouble with scarring before. Can anything be done?
