Cute with Clothes but Frankenstein Boobs Underneath

Breast Reduction looked fine initially but developed severe necrosis after a few days. It took months to fully heal & left behind some pretty significant scaring. Dr Marvin tried a few laser therapy treatments to treat the scars but I was unable to continue treatment since I moved out of state. Additionally, I have stitch-like white scars around my nipples and they're not totally symmetrical (one is slightly bigger than the other). I don’t know why this happened & Dr Marvin didn’t really have much to say since post op care was lacking. I don’t know if it was his technique, how he closed, or even the slightest idea why this happened. The only answer I received was that he said this can happen to older patients & he thought it was weird because I was only 26 at the time but “it should heal up”. As you can see, it was terrifying to see my body this way & I cried the first morning I woke up & saw the necrosis start to form over night.
Overall, the necrosis healed but I am still learning to accept my new breasts. They’re cute in clothes & I do have relief from the back/neck pain my old breasts caused. But the low self esteem & self consciousness in times of intimacy is still something I very much struggle with.
