It needs to be clear that external purse-string incision is an invasive operation, which requires incision and suture at the surgical site. After the operation, there will be some inflammatory reaction and tissue damage at the operation site, which will lead to redness, pain and other symptoms at the operation site. It will take some time for the surgical incision to heal.
Generally speaking, 1-2 weeks after operation is the period of wound healing. At this stage, the inflammatory reaction of the surgical site is gradually reduced, and the tissue damage begins to repair. However, because the healing of the surgical incision takes a certain time and process, the skin at the surgical site may be tight and stiff at this stage.
About 2-3 months after operation, the inflammatory reaction and tissue damage at the surgical site usually gradually disappear, and the traces of the surgical incision will gradually fade. However, it should be noted that the recovery time of surgical incision may be different due to individual differences and different surgical conditions. Some people may take longer to recover, while others may recover faster.
Postoperative care and maintenance will also affect the recovery time of surgical incision. If the postoperative care or maintenance is improper, it may lead to complications such as increased inflammatory reaction at the surgical site and incision infection, thus prolonging the recovery time of the surgical incision.
After the operation of external pouch, you must follow the doctor's advice for correct care and maintenance. We should also maintain an optimistic attitude and good living habits to avoid overwork and tension, which is helpful to the recovery of surgical incision and the presentation of surgical effect.

It is also recommended that you choose regular plastic surgery hospitals and experienced plastic surgeons for surgery to ensure the safety of the operation and maximize the effect.
