Delayed wound healing after breast lift (Photo)

me127
It's been 8 weeks since I had revision implants and a lift. About 3 weeks ago I had surgical debridement of the wound and a vac dressing put on. My wound base has come up a lot and the wound is no longer deep but I'm concerned about the skin around the wound- it seems to be going a darker colour and inside the wound is a yellow stuff in it but has a lot of pink colour now- looks better then it did before. Does it look like a normal healing wound? I'm just a bit paranoid.
