How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

8 weeks today!
I'm 8 weeks post op today. I still have days where I'm swollen and days where is almost non existent. I'm back in the gym 4+ days per week which is great. And I've started working my core again. The stretching sensation is still pretty odd at times, but I feel like I'm healing well. I started using maderma and silicone scar sheets on my incision a week ago. I think it's already starting to lighten some! Here are my pics.
6 weeks today!!
I'm healing great and really feeling great too after such a rough start! All of my suture abscesses have fully healed and the swelling is getting better. I started back at the gym a week ago. Whoa is it slow going!! I haven't felt so out of shape in a while! But I will keep going and it will get better :) I will truly be happy when the swelling is all the way gone! Took some pictures at week 5 and I'm uploading them now. I don't know that I really have anything else to add right now!
Drain is out!!
Hooray the drain is out one day short of four weeks. Have had some major ups and downs. My one small spitting suture turned into a superficial dehiscence. In all I have 4 spitting sutures, 2 are almost healed, one may get worse, and one is healing. I also have another spot I'm hoping doesn't open up. I'm on Bactrim for a potential infection in the dehisced area but that looks much better too. Hopefully no more setbacks from here on out.
In this pic was the initial spitting suture, then the couple holes that opened, then the open wound that occurred.
