Lollipop breast lift scar revision/removal 2 years after dehisced incisions and spitting stitches

Hi! I got a breast lift in 2022 and had spitting stitches and dehisced incisions which lead to some gnarly hypertrophic wide scars and a spreading areola on my left breast. You can look at my journey, it was very detailed and in depth in my previous review, I don't think I have the energy for that this time around lol.
On a couple of occasions leading up to the appointment I smoked cigarettes and felt TERRIBLE after realising, because it just totally slipped my mind and only hit me the night before my appointment ffs. It might be interesting for you all to see what happens when you fck around and find out, so to speak.
Anyway I had my surgery this morning, it was under local anaesthetic and I was knocked out by a sedative and woke up in the last 10 minutes or so and chatted with the doctors about football haha. it's been about 5 hours since and I'm starting to feel pain in my left breast in a place which already looks like it's dehisced. I can't deal lol and I'm annoyed and frustrated but also a bit over it. To top it off we got charged more than expected despite me thinking that the procedure would be free because it's a revision. My initial surgery was really cheap because I got a crazy discount so I suppose it all works out in the end but still, annoying. If this one also goes south I just give up like why me yall? Gah damn. Anyway, without further ado, I will show before and stop talking. The before is from April 2023, so 1 year and 4 months after my initial surgery.

Sorry my review is all messed up bc I forgot how Realself reviews work lol but these are pictures from 2 days ago of my initial results, though there’s not much you can see with the dressings/tape. My doctor used a different, less duct-tape-like tape this time around because (see my previous review) I had a terrible reaction to it last time. I hope this lessens the risk for incisions opening!!

Mobility is much better today. I have barely any pain anymore, down from a 5/10 without painkillers to a 1. I am trying to be mindful about bending and lifting things. Incisions look a bit better, this is after a shower. I tried wearing my sloggi padded bra without an underwire today but its pretty uncomfy surprisingly. Otherwise I have been wearing my all time favourite marks and spencer seamless non wired crop tops which have been fantastic. Doctor said in healing great at the follow up yday.
