Purple Itchy Hip Scars 3 Months Post DIEP, Will They Fade?
katmamaof4Feb 19, 2012
I am at 12 wks post DIEP 2 and the hip scars were moved down 2 cm. They are VERY itchy and VERY purple esp. compared to last time (12 mos ago) where they were just red. When wearing silicone sheets, swelling is obvious by days' end. As I continue to heal, will purple fade? Should I see a PS here about it. Original surgeon is out of state.
