What to do? I have a scar and slough around my right ear with some ear pain and drainage from Eschar site. . All my suture lines have some mild eschar and Slough. I’ve been using MAnika honey dressing’s. Initially used to Santyl. On day 12 postop I did see a wound care RN and expressed about 8 mL subdermal from the eschar site and right cheek. At what point do I seek further treatment with a plastic surgeon? Do you know of anyone in the Seattle area who’s willing to assist with this?

Answer: Face lift etc. done outside the USA with scarring and tissue loss. Face lift etc. done outside the USA with scarring and tissue loss. you need to see an experienced surgeon like Dr. William Portuese. This is an example once again why patients trying to save money by having surgery outside the USA should Think twice before having this done.

Answer: You should seek the care of a facial plastic surgeon or general plastic surgeon. Others have noted that medical tourism is appealing because what you see are the dollars. What you ignored is that the quality of the work is often frighteningly terrible. You will scar from this and the area in front of the ears will scar. Your face lift incisions will be visible once they have healed. You are loosing the density of the hair along the incisions and these changes are likely to be permanent. Surgeons will be reluctant to help you. However, you will likely find someone who will step in to help you. When you have healed from this, please consider helping others understand why medical tourism is not a good idea. Best to you.
