Having a 'folded-in' areola means that a little too much gland was removed. My LHS areola is slightly concave. That's where the skill of the surgeon come in. Knowing just 'how much' to remove.

As for healing, take a good multi-vitamin, don't expose your scars to U.V. light and have patience. ;)

Do you think that massage or silicone strips or anything else  factors into that as well ?
... and the saga continues
