Is my lipo hole healing properly? Does it look infected? (Photo)

Question

I had lipo and bbl 3 weeks ago and I'm experiencing delayed healing with one of the lipo holes. I've been cleaning with mild soap and water daily and covering with gauze. Not sure if it's getting better, Do this look to be healing? What is the yellow film in the inside of wound? Will that heal on its own? I have no fever or any other symptoms of infection. I'm very paranoid just want to know it will heal and have peace of mind so I don't worry about it daily.

this looks like it needs wound care, is not infected.  Please speak to your physician so you do not develop a keloid.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question and picture. It does not seem to be infected but there may still be a stitch in the wound that is preventing the incision from healing.  Go back to your PS and have him evaluate the area.

Best to see your surgeon in person for follow up wound care, i.e. silver nitrate stuck tx. Or see a second opinions PS for this, fee $500.
