Title: Stretch Marks/Areola
Post by: Jayr on February 25, 2014, 10:24:45 PM
4 months post-op.

I have these reddish stretch marks around my areolas, anyone else?

Don't remember seeing any other guy with this.
If the same thing happened after your surgery;
Did it go away? How long post-op?
Did you apply anything on them?
Thanks!

6 weeks here and I have a white line like a stretch mark coming off my incision. I'd guess it's cause of the bunched skin underneath and not laying right but I don't know for sure.

Just started happen to me too, 3 months post op. I was thinking that maybe mine were from stretching my chest muscles too early, but I've read that it's normal for them to happen when theres a sudden change in size in the area they are. Perhaps keeping the area well moisturized will help?
