Bruising and pain at incision site 9 nine months post-op butt implants - what should I do?

Based on the posted photos, you have recurrent cellulitis until proven otherwise. The aggressive treatment is implant removal, 6 weeks course of IV antibiotics. Then re insertion of implant after 3 months. The minimally invasive option is OZONE therapy for 2 weeks with IV antibiotics. If no reoccurrence in 6 months you are cured. But if reoccur either try this non invasive plan or go to surgery. Fees for non invasive OZONE $10,000. Best to virtual consult with...

The redness of your skin is a concern. If it’s been the same for several months then it is most likely not a bacterial infection. If your doctor can’t figure out the problem then consider consulting with other specialist. You may want to consider a consult with a dermatologist and consider a skin biopsy of the area that’s having the symptoms.

Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos I note a significant area of redness at the superior-medial aspect of the right buttock.As this phenomenon is associated with pain, it suggests the probability of an underlying infection. A negative CT scan does not rule out the presence of an infection. I'm not quite sure what you mean by a "flare up"...This has happened before? Revisit your plastic surgeon as soon as possible for reevaluation and probable treatment.Best wishes...
