I had lipo done to my calves.My calves look great-happy with results but not happy with the indented scars.3 of 8 incisions are indented.The incisions were left open to drain.I understand some docs do this and some don’t.They are very small incisions but I still do not like that they are indented.I feel like I would have been better off if they were stitched up and became keloid scars this way I could flatten them with scar strips like I have done in the past.
