Concerned. Arm lift incisions are getting thicker and look redder/irritated 9.5 weeks post op (Photo)

Asked By:suzjunckie1970 in Des Moines, IA

My incisions started out thin and a "whitish" color. This past week it seems the incisions have gotten thicker, they look irritated and red. I have been using Skin Medica Scar Gel prescribed by PS, and massaging at least daily. Is this normal? Do I need to be concerned?
