I have horrible sjin breakdown after a lift. I am almost 5 weeks out. Day 8 grew klebsiella and enterococcus, took 2 weeks of Bactrim. Third week grew out Pseudomonas. My Dr said they are just superficial wounds and only Silvadene is needed. I am so worried. He will do a staged exc of scar 6-12mos out. 300cc Silicone.
