Asked By:nam123 in Canoga Park, CA

My surgeon says I'm a slow healer. The stitches were not able to come out 7daysbafyer surgery so my doctor waited 12days. But I still have open wounds around areola. He is having me put special ointment on daily and keep them covered with this medicated yellow tape. But they are still not healing. They look very uneven and completely different sizes. Should I be worried? What can I do to make the open wounds heal faster and dos the doctor not do the reduction correctly??
