Why did my areola incision open? 2 months post op. (photos)

You appear to have had a stitch abscess that can occur with any type of suture. Please continue to keep it clean and covered until healed. Please call your doctor's office for specific instructions.

This appears to be related to the type of suture material used, but only your surgeon knows that for sure.  Your best option is to contact your surgeon.  

Hi there, thanks for your question. It's a bit difficult to tell from the pictures and full exam would be required, but it does appear like a suture or stitch abscess. These are quite common as your body begins to heal and "push" the sutures out. Different people have varied reaction to stitches and some are more sensitive than others. I would see your surgeon just to be sure, but most likely you are progressing as expected. Best of luck to you.

Krystal,What you have described sounds like a stitch abscess which can be very common even a few months post op.  Keep it clean and dry and it should heal with minimal increased scaring.Dr T

It is likely that you had a stitch abscess.  This will often go on to heal pretty quickly.  Best to follow with your surgeon.
