Scarring and hyperpigmentation on darker skin after rhinoplasty?

March 12, 2022
Asked By:Calm54909 in Scotland, United Kingdom

Hello, So I have my rhinoplasty coming up on the 28th of March, but I’m a little worried about how the scars will look. I am dark skinned and I am very prone to hyperpigmentation. I had my breast augmentation over a year now and scars are still visible, so I’m really scared it will be the same for my nose. How does scarring work on the nose for darker skin ?
