The result looks good from what you have posted up.
7 weeks isn't very long really and if you have had complications then you can't really define a standard time line.

Numbness may or may not get better, seems to be varying experiences on that subject. Had mine done in '08 and have limited sensation as a result to this day.

Thanks for your input 'Kingboob' haha!

I think impatience is getting the better of me, though I'm a bit concerned that it won't resolve how I hope and am really just trying to find out info about hematomas. I can't recall how long my last one took to sort out I think it was only a month though, mind you some stuff has actually been removed this time which is maybe why its taking longer than I had hoped.

9 Weeks Down the road now, very slow progress if any in the last 3 weeks.

Hematoma is a strange thing, seems like a hard lump and protrudes...
I do worry that it will stay like this and form into scar tissue, I really hope not as it will basically be the same as the condition I had before only on the opposite side, I guess not seeing any progress for a while has been disheartening.

Will with any luck post pics in the next couple weeks.

Anyone else having problem loading pics?

I'm at week 12 now, oddly the protrusion on my left side has increased and the lump is quite hard - apparently the hematoma reabsorbing, the skin on my right side is not as tight anymore too. Been back in the gym for 2 weeks and everything feels fine, wear the vest less often but from the 6 - 12 mark was still wearing it daily until a fortnight ago.

Can't do a thing about it... :/
