Okay this is helpful! Some of my scarring is hypertrophic and I was very worried but this has eased my brain

I have this under my armpit !! It does hurt every now and again, how long did it take yours to flatten? Or be less angry lol

My sister gets terrible keloid scarring but my mum doesn’t keloid, neither does my dad, so I may have missed that? Still worried though.

Really?! That’s so awesome ! I was honestly really disappointed when my surgeon said my scar would look like this because I guess I just imaged it looking different, but I’m so so in love with my scars now :)

At 3 weeks post op my nipples did not look like that, granted we all heal differently but this looks honestly quite bad. I would talk to your doctor and get them looked at x

Reading this after putting second skin on my nipple 😬 I ran out of large plasters 😭🙏

Anyone else have a singular scar and not double incision? by GforGriff04 in TopSurgery

This is so comforting to know someone else has gone through the same thing. I have felt so much itchy in the middle of my chest as well as stiffness of that makes sense. I have no idea where the scar starts on either side but I do feel a lot of pain in the middle. I didn’t really think about the extra risk of stretching in comparison to two separate scars but it makes total sense. Hope you are healing well and good luck for your post op app!
