Mini Tummy Tuck

Firmness in this area is not uncommon for several months in some circumstances. Keep the compression in place, and consider low energy Vshape or Vsmooth.

Mini Tummy Tuck Recovery

Based on your limited description and no pictures to review you are probably experiencing normal recovery after this procedure. Because your findings are new and you are obviously concerned it would behoove you to follow-up as soon as possible with your surgeon for direct examination. Best wishes.
