Tight or does it get loose??

By Pam47 on 09 Jan 2012

I was wondering if after having a tummy tuck...I am almost 4 months post op...is the skin suppose to be tight and flat or can you still pull skin and it is wrinkly like before the surgery?  Hard to explain but when I go to grab my stomach I can pull at least a inch of skin and it's wrinkly also.

Pattycake...huh? Was that directed towards me? I don't mean to sound rude but your reply confuses me....full body makeover prevents what? Your profile says you are looking into tummy tuck and a breast lift..if you havent had your surgery yet why would you comment something like that to me??

Can you post a picture? If it is just wrinkly where the stretch marks are that is probably normal to some degree but I am not sure how bad it is. I still have some stretchmarks under my belly button after the surgery that I am worried about getting wrinkly after the swelling goes away. I pray it doesn't but I am worried about it. A picture will help you might just be hard on yourself.

Did you loose a lot of weight since your surgery? Is it wrinkly or do you still have stretch marks?

I havent lost any weight, when I grab it I still see wrinkly skin and I do have stretch marks but not as noticeable now
