What do you advise for my ripped stitches causing ugly scar and uneven contour?

November 5, 2018
Asked By:Anon2694 in Somewhere

I am six months after TT and flank lipo. Not happy w/outcome, but not sure if I should wait 1 year for final results. Problems: suture line ragged, and 1.5" deep wound due to rupture with traumatic vomiting post surgery. My surgeon said would redo scar left from rupture and then said I probably didn't need it. Scar is very upsetting. Also uneven contour, especially the right flank having a pronounced bulge. Please advise. I've got another appointment with doc, and need guidance with what to say.
