After about 4 weeks post op this black dot appeared on my incision line and has been there now for several weeks which oozed out black today and left a hole. I moved out of state and can't get to my surgeon. Just for the record I didn't have any stitches removed because I had dissolvable stitches. Can someone tell me if I should be concerned enough to book a flight back to my doctor? Or is this something that will go away on its own?

I would advise you to wait another couple of months before assessing your final outcome. If you are still unhappy at that point, schedule an appointment with your surgeon to discuss revision options. My best,

This is a great question and quite commonly asked in my practice. If improving your back pain is your ultimate goal, then a reduction (removing breast weight) which also includes a lift would likely be the best choice. This would also fix your uneven breasts. A lift would make your breasts...
I think you would be better served with silicone tape/strips which will provide you better scar healing outcomes.I usually tell my patients to wear them 10 to 12 hours a day consecutively.
