Incision holes, infections or necrosis

User Avatar

I see patients who have developed holes in the incisions, infections or necrosis and wonder why these cant be cleaned and closed rather than left gaping like I often see? Also I see a lot of issues at the T of the incision on breast lifts due to the intersection, can't extra stitching or some type of proactive prevention be used?
