Asked By:Dawn4326

18 days PO from liposuction, certified Dr. in the USA. Noticed 1 day PO, @ 1 week PO, Dr. expressed concerns. Sent photo 2 weeks PO & said “thought the spot was from a garment that was too tight”. I wasn’t buying it and went to the ER. Follow up 2nd opinion was concerned with red & treated both. What’s your opinions? Do I have skin necrosis with a side of cellulitis? No burn. None smoker. Healthy. Young.
