A: Can I have a Tummy Tuck after an abortion?

There should be no problem with you proceeding with a tummy tuck following an abortion. You need to wait several weeks though for things to settle down and make sure there is no infection. You should also seek the advice of your gynecologist in addtion to you rplastic surgeon for best timing. Good luck!

Drain Hole Not Closing, Very Painful. What To Do? (photo)

I am 3.5 weeks post op. My left drain hole has not closed up. Last week it started very painful and leaking fluid, went to the PS on Tuesday and he said i had stitched popping through, He cut one out leaving another hole. I now have two painful holes next to each other. I have been putting neosporin and bandaids on it like directed. It isnot healing and very sore. Now the skin around it is getting raw as well. I am attaching pics of the bandaid I removed and the holes.

A: Tummy tuck drain holes

Drain holes typically close in a few days.  From what I can see from your pictures these areas should heal shortly with the treatment you are doing.  It would be a good idea to get rechecked by your doctor to make sure you are not developing an infection.

A: tummy tuck

You can still have a tummy tuck.  You should not get it immediately afterwards.  It would be best to wait a minimum of six weeks to allow your body to recover.  Discuss this with your surgeon.
