Concerned about blister over hematoma site after necklift and facelift? (Photo)

June 24, 2017
Asked By:WI1963 in San Diego, CA

My doctor is out of the country until Monday when I see him next. 10 days post-op now (photo). At Day 7 hematoma-- he said to wait because it hadn't liquified. Day 9 had nurse drain it and only got 5cc. He said to wait until doctor back and would try to drain again. Later that day developed blister which keeps filling up. I am not a good healer and want to tackle aggressively (surgery) vs. the long road of drainage soon if warranted. Hematoma does not seem to be softening up at all.
