William Andrade, MD · Answer

Thanks for your inquiry.  Bruising can often take several weeks, or even longer in some cases, to completely subside.

Martin Jugenburg, MD · Answer

Post-surgical bruising can last 2-4 weeks.  In some cases longer.  Some people bruise more than others, and things such as high omega 3/ fish oil diet and some supplements and herbal remedies worsen bruising.  If you are concerned, speak to your surgeon.
