I had surgery 4 weeks ago. There are previous scars on my abdomen from other surgeries. The Doctor suggested I pull the skin up as I fasten my compression garment, but it slides back down and leaves deep creasing in the scars by the end of the day. Previous apendectomy, tumor with partial small intestine removal, and 2x pseudocyst removal 22-24 cm. Age 40
I had lipo done on my abdomen, love handles and axilla areas 3 weeks ago. My doctor wants me to tape my back for the best results. I am single and I don't have friends close by to help me with this, I've talked to the Dr multiple times about this and he can not offer me any other solution. Any tips on how I can manage this? #desperate #regret #iseerevisioninmyfuture
I received liposuction on my flanks about 7 days ago. One of the incisions that my surgeon left open is not covered or stitched up. There was some light yellow discharge. Does it look fine and is there anything I can do to take better care of it? I am waiting for my surgeon to respond back to my email.
Was advised by my plastic surgery that this was a tape chemical burn used during my tummy tuck/ lipo surgery. I am not sure this is the case. He advised me to use neosporin to treat the area. However I've started using Curad Sliver Solution (55ppm) and polysporin Should I get a second opinion?
I had liposuction of my trunk about 2 months ago and the left side of my stomach and side is very sensitive and had heard that Ktape or something similar could be helpful and am curious what results have been seen using this instead of constantly being in a compression garment or binder?
