Why Do I Have a Wrinkle in the Center of my Incision?

Thanks and best wishes.

Post Operative Appearance Of Incision
It is not possible to give any advice without at least the aid of pictures. However I would be inclined to say that you are very early in the post operative course and should not make any calls on the appearance of your scar as it will change with time. Wound healing and changes in the appearance of your scar can occur for 12 to 18 months and in some cases longer.
Consider posting a photo to help in evaluating your concerns. Best wishes.
