Bruising is essentially gone and scars on eyelids are very light.

That sounds miserable. How many grams of protein are you getting? Have you had trouble healing from surgeries/wounds in the past?

I think, in your shoes, I'd go talk to my dermatologist and see if this was possibly a skin issue that they might have insight on.

Hello. I' m 47 and Had lower body lift August 2 2017. Having continued complications. I have followed all my surgeons advise from the start with no lifting....etc. I am almost 5 months post surgery and continue to dehise at surgical site. They start off being mushy then drain then open up. No infection just clear drainage. My last two opening were about 2 weeks ago and I have another spot that may open up soon. I been doing all my followup and pretty much they have to heal from inside out which means wound packing. I have had at least 7 to 8 openings since the start. I also have this pain that goes all the way around incision. It feels like a belt is getting tightened and some days are worse than others. Has anyone had these issues this far out from surgery? It's almost 5 months post surgery. Any ideas? Remember I have followed all doctor advise and have not missed a beat...no lifting....take vitamins...high protein...etc. please help. Thank you.

Glad to hear that you are healing!

I would wholeheartedly vouch for Dr. Reish in NYC, who did my breasts and tummy tuck. I've seriously never in my life received care from a doctor as top-notch as this. Super responsive, attentive, and he does wonderful work!

I was at goal for like 6 months pre-plastics, but I would have done it sooner. My surgeon didn't have a goal requirement but I will say that getting the plastics certainly makes me want to do everything in my power to maintain my results - much moreso than pre-plastics.
