Hi, wondered if you kind doctors could reassure me that I am healing ok. My post op isn't for another 2 weeks. I am 4 week post op tomorrow from 520cc hp submuscular silicone implants. One of my scabs seems yellow on the one that appears most healed, and the other one is still scabbed and the incision seems doubled. Very raised. Always has been. Am I healing as I should be? Thanks in advance x

Answer: Incision site poor healing Hi,Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you. It is important to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your best resource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, and concerns. Having said that, your incisions are not healing ideally. If you smoke, please stop. You should have some ointment on the scabs to get them to soft and help them separate from the skin. They should go on to heal with ok results. Also send these pictures to your PS and have the PS tell you if you should be seen sooner.I hope you found this helpful. Have a great day.
