Scars Aren't Healed



Recommended Posts

I'm supposed to get filled on Tuesday, September 20. My incisions still haven't healed yet and I'm not sure why. Some of them still have scabs and then they fall off and have yellow puss (gross, sorry for the TMI). Am I going to be ready for a fill or will they not let me because my incisions haven't healed completely yet???

I think mine looked pretty good by the time I got my first fill, but they did the exact same thing yours are doing. I just put a band aid over them with neosporin to help them heal and it was fine. As long as you don't have a lot of redness around them or fever in them you should be fine. I had a few stitches that didn't disolve and worked their way to the surface. After I pulled those out the healing went much faster. So don't freak out, you should be fine since they're not split wide open and oozing. B)
