T Junction Wound Not Healing? (photo)

September 12, 2013
Asked By:Ann71 in United Kingdom, GB

I am 3 weeks post op after a mastopexy (no implants) with stratus mesh. This wound is not healing well. My surgeon gave me iodine dressings to apply but I'm worried about the scar it is going to leave. My other breast has healed beautifully and the scarring is barely visible already. Will this heal in time and should I be concerned about the scar?
