Thank you for sharing your question and photographs and I am sorry to see your wound healing difficulties. Unfortunately a significant amount of skin and tissue is involved and I would recommend seeking your surgeon for local wound care advice - typically keeping the area covered with a thick emollient for now - but be aware that this will blister and look worse before it is able to heal. Without knowing the details of the procedure it is difficult to know why this took place - skin tension, liposuction burn with ultrasound use, etc ,so talk to your surgeon.
Hello. Great question. I am sorry for your difficulty in wound healing. I will suggest to follow your surgeon's instructions as he knows you best. Best of luck with your recovery. If concerns still persist, please visit a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination.

You are still in the recovery period from surgery and swelling is common at this phase. I recommend discussing your concerns with your surgeon who can examine you to rule out complications. As you notice an improvement with your binder, it is likely normal swelling from increased activity.
