Scar tissue post hemetoma and seroma. Can I have the scar tissue removed surgically?

February 24, 2014
Asked By:lara73 in Little Switzerland, NC

In my right breast, I have quite a lot of scar tissue within the breast (lower quadrants) . I had a hemtoma and saroma in this breast. The scar tissue is hard. I am 2 months post op. How can I get rid of it? My surgeon seems to say it will get softer with time. I was wondering whether I can have it removed surgically. The scars are really nice though
