Answer: How long does it take for an opening on the T-incision to heal? Hello JL.It sounds like you had an anchor pattern breast lift. This is a more complex surgery. Generally speaking, it takes from 2 to 6 weeks to fully heal an anchor incision. Your nutrition may be a big factor in the timing. Speak to your plastic surgeon about recommendations.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO :)

Answer: How long does it take for an opening on the T-incision to heal? This depends on whether you have already experience some degree of wound opening/dehiscence. If you have, it will obviously take additional weeks to fully close. In general, scars take a year to mature so they are always red, raised, and bumpy initially. Best to consult with your operating surgeon if you have specific concerns about your scar. Good luck!

Answer: How long does it take for an opening on the breast lift T-incision to heal? Thank you for your question. It is very common for the surface or superficial skin to slough or be removed following breast lift T incision. With proper care including cleansing, wet-to-dry saline dressings these wounds typically re-epithelialize and heal in over 3-4 weeks. Very large areas may take longer. The most important thing is proper wound care which your surgeon should manage. Reed below:
