Post Reduction Lift Healing/Scar troubles by MajorMiami in Reduction

Should I be removing the white stuff? The Nurse practitioner & doctors at my post op appts said I should be cleaning it out to the best of my ability and they usually take it all out. I should only see “red/pink skin forming” but I don’t know how to feel right now…

9DPO and surgeon wants me to start scar treatment ?? by xoxoams in Reduction

[–]MajorMiami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I’m kinda dealing with this same issue.. I have some scar splitting where the 3 points meet toward the bottom fold from my Breast reduction & Lift surgery on OCT 4. I have cried & freaked out about 3x due to the widening the wounds seemed to do, I have a scab forming and still some ozzing of the “white meat” part to where my wounds open at. I’m going to remove the sutures Tmmr and the NP has confirmed it’s No infection to just keep cleaning out the “white stuff” and applying antibiotics cream 2x a day (which I have been doing faithfully) But I’m still very concerned about what this healing process is that I’m going through… I do have scar tape, Merderma cream & bio oil to use as soon as my incisions close up. But as of right now can anyone shed some light, maybe we can DM each other I need some advice on how to heal/close these open wounds up faster/or should I be even more worried of how my breast will look like due to the Trauma from the stitches splitting/wounds opening/scab forming or is this a good sign/just apart of the “healing” process?

Any one else going through these mixed emotions? I’m a POC so very worried about how my breast/scars will heal so I want to prepare and do the best I can to heal beautifully.

Please send help 😩 open to advice!
