i can feel those little bumps only on some areas of my incision line.. will they go away? anything that I can do?
Answer: Tummy Tuck Incision Line
Thank you for your question.
You are still very early on in the recovery process and most likely the bumps you feel will go away with time.
In my practice, I use dissolvable sutures and it does take some time for these to fully dissolve. I would suggest giving your self time to heal and allow the scar to heal as well. Keep in close communication with your surgeon.
We offer a scar cream to our patient's which has silicone as well as a steriod that seems to work well.
I hope this helps.

Answer: Bumps along incision line
You may be feeling the deep sutures, or maybe firmer areas where collagen/scar tissue is building up (a normal process). In both cases, this should get better over the upcoming months!

Answer: Normal Post -OP Healing Yhe incision has sutures holding the the skin together. What you are feeling are the deep sutures which usually will absorb, depending of the type of sutures used. Again, perfectly normal.

Answer: Bumps that are felt deep to the suture line represent deep sutures that have not dissolved yet
At 7 weeks following a tummy tuck, the bumps that you are feeling are most probably deep sutures that have not as of yet dissolved. Depending on the material used, this may take up to 6 - 9 months to resolve.
