7 month post corset plasty/trad. Neck lift. Had hematoma & seroma post sx day 1. Healed nicely. So see no connection. Growing tightness-sticky duct tape pull feel when turn neck. Feels like unremitting vice. Ps recs myofascial release tx. Primary MD instead recs PMR & Neuro. Can adhesions w/in the tissue layers occur? What would be non-visual physical symptoms of myofascial adhesions? What will myofascial therapy do for my intense tightness? Thank you.
I need to fix my neck after a calcified seroma left a patch of loose/puffy skin. Most Dr's have said I don't need a facelift. One suggested a neck lift with cervicoplasty. How much loose skin does someone normally have to have to warrant a cervicoplasty?
How long will this take to heal? Are steroids along with massage the best path to treatment? I just had surgeon inject steroids into it. He said now it scar tissue.
Hematoma occurred later in day. Re-operated on, with extensive cauterization on cheek & neck. Hematoma originated in neck. Then re-sewn. Still have AWFUL looking bumps/long line that are firm yet slighlty soft. Originally thought to be seroma but no fluid emerged after aspiration. Then told it was the muscle from being pulled tight. 2nd in person opinion stated due to cauterization and said DONT TOUCH, and will go away after 3 months. Online doctors said to massage. WORRIED! Will it go? When?
6 weeks post platysmaplasty/neck lift with lipo. PS had me wear chin strap for 1 wk then discontinue. As the swelling subsided some I noticed as softening began under chin that was bulging on left side and uneven. If I push lightly on it the bulge disappears but reappears. If I tilt to the right the bulge moves. The skin seems loose and soft. I am concerned as definite heaviness on one side and worried skin not attaching. Will skin reattach this late if it is fluid? Unhappy
I had minimal swelling until my stitches were removed and with two days a large knot. It has been drained 3 times in five days 35cc,27cc and 31cc today. It normally begins to fill up within 8-12 hours to being noticeable again.
I had a neck lift 2 months ago and developed a seroma on my cheek. It was drained several times and also drained out on its own. There is no more drainage but it seems that the redness and indentations from the drain spots are not going away. My Dr only has me using new Gel
The day of the facelift I developed a hematoma. The facelift was reopened to relieve the hematoma and then sewn up a 2nd time. 3 weeks post op, the good side looks fantastic! The hematoma side has 2 large bumps and a long string like bump below. These exist below the cheekbone and look awful. It looks worse than photo. Thought it was a seroma but via needle aspiration little if any fluid emerged. Will these go away? When? No changes in 5 days. Very concerned. Also, vision is now very blurred.
