I had a short scar facelift (Quicklift) 3 months ago and there are hard "bumps" along the permanent suture line (it is also “pulling” on my skin). My surgeon said that taking Medrol (glucocorticoid) for a week will speed up the healing and the bumps will go away. Steroids have so many side effects …….would it really help? I read about that some people could "reject" permanent sutures and then they must be removed. Is it true?
