Those must be stickers because no way can you wipe that wound as aggressively as you did. 😮
they are fake tattoos, just for a demo model as an example.
This is great, thank you! Been there in the last few weeks and felt completely alone. Had my drain wound not had complications, I’d never have found you. Thanks for putting this information out there.
Thanks , very practical!
You’ll do great! Good luck Heather. If you’re getting a breast lift, you’re going to have “T-Rex arms” for at least the first week. You will not be able to use your arms much without engaging the chest muscles that should be resting… But you’ll do fine.
Wish I’d found you both before my surgery!! These services would have made the entire process so much easier, more reassuring and I would have been much better prepared and would have made better choices…
Thank you
Why don’t plastic surgeons inform and support their patients better? Being almost 2 weeks post surgery, I’m astonished at how much I’m completely on my own. My surgeon is very known for and experienced in, my particular procedure. But there are only two post surgical appointments and you are dismissed (and the first one was only with the nurse). I’m really disappointed. There were lot of drain problems and it’s been very scary. I have never even heard of a post op provider before now… where do I even begin, considering the fact that the surgery has already happened?
Try googling or join the Tiame out post-op corner Facebook group to find someone in your area. And they really don't help adequately prepare or manage after surgery
Good to know what to expect, what’s normal and how to do whatever we’re supposed to be doing. The instructions I got were very minimal. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you! 😊
Thank you!
So helpful, thank you!
You're so welcome!
Wish I’d found you before my surgery. Thank you for putting this information out there for the average person. I feel very much abandoned post op, with post surgical complications and unexpected obstacles in healing.
I'm sorry that you've had a rough experience!
Thanks for this!
Hi! Can you name some of the things we can do to make it heal faster?
Thank you for this information 🙏
Is it ok to apply a warm compress to these types of wounds?
Not typically a great idea especially if there is swelling or signs of infection. Heat will tend to make all that worse
Sun's the worst for scars. Have you tried a lighten cream? Docs can give you a prescription if the over the counter isn't working
I had the silicone tape on thinking I was protecting the scar but the tape created a tan line 😮 My doctor is in Colombia so I don't know what to purchase here to lighten it. My scar is a year old so how long should I use the tools above for?
Thank you so much! It has been a year since I got my tummy tuck. I think my scar has gotten a little dark from the sun. What do you recommend? I've been using silicone strips for scar.
Why did you use the same wipes for your hand that you used to clean the table?
You are very informative on open wound care for a 15 yr old. But why do you have so many wounds?
Those are fake tattoos I bought for my sons Halloween costume. Just using as a prop to demonstrate
I have a lipo burn and it’s on my flanks. How should o treat this?
Check out this resource www.betterwounds.com/post/lipo-burn-evolution

Does this speed up the healing for pressure sore stage 3?
It's possible but make sure you're getting the pressure off #1 adequate nutrition #2 and remove nonviable tissue and advanced wound care #3
Thank you for sharing
Hello, mine hasnt healed over 3 weeks, and the surface is a bit yellow.
yellow tissue is not viable tissue and should be removed. If you can get to a wound doctor they should be able to remove it physically or with dressings. If you don't have access, reach out on www.betterwounds.com and we can set up a call and attempt to guide you from a far with resources you do have available
Hello! Do you have any taping advice for pulling the back skin tighter after Lipo surgery and swelling ?
Tape is good for helping to decrease swelling which can inadvertently help the skin retract. but it can only do so much. After 12 weeks or so, Radiofrequency may be another non-surgical option to help.
