Answer: Liposuction incision is Open, now what? Hi Maggie,Thanks for your question and photos. Everything appears good. I would continue doing what you are doing. Avoid the sun as your scar will tan and leave a permanent mark. Wait to hear from your surgeon, if redness, swelling or fevers, occur make sure to be seen asap. Good luck!

Answer: Lipo incision care Your incision looks intact, and just has a small amount of skin abrasion on the edges, which is normal. You're doing the right thing until you hear back from your PS.
