Buttock Implants: Wound Has Opened Up!

By dashkinamat on 22 Jul 2012

Hello, I had buttock implants a month ago, had 300cc. The wound had opened up recently and is very deep. Is what I have now is wound dehiscence? My doctor says that its common happens with every 1 of 4 patients, but to me seems like dangerous thing to be walking around with an open wound.. Please let me know what to do.

This is not safe. You have to get a second opinion. Ask at least one or two more doctors.
