Hello Dr. Epstein,
I've attached two more pics as of today. As you can see it's about 95% healed.
I removed the stitches on Monday (approx 18 days after the procedure.)
I would say that the revision has left a scar no more than 1 to 2 mm wide!!!!!!
A GREAT SUCCESS!!! I am so happy right now.Of course you get most of the credit, but I thought I'd tell you what I did on my end.
First I used the Neosporin for approx the first 6 or 7 days.
I kept the wound as clean as possible. It never even really had much of a scab at all except for around the stitches themselves. I assume due to how you sutured it.
The other thing I did was make a great veggie and fruit juice smoothie everyday with carrots / cucumber / banana / apple / parsley / yogurt and what I think was the MOST important ingredient - 4 ounces of 100% aloe.
You mentioned that if everything went well we could do another procedure to tackle more of the scar in approx 4 months or so. Do you still think that would be the thing to do? I really am looking forward to whittling it ALL down to 1 to 2 mm total width!!! If you agree I will talk to Jon about setting something up in December.
THANKS AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
