I had a periareolar mastopexy and implants placed under the muscle about one month ago. My incisions appeared to be scabbed around the 3rd day post op but worsened over the next couple weeks to appear as if they were necrotic. I began rubbing Vaseline on them twice a day.The black turned to yellow slough and incisions dehisced. When I went back to my doctor the last time, he gave me Santyl to apply to the wounds until my incisions heal. I'm worried about infection and scarring. Please help me!
