I had a tummy tuck 8 years after having twins and 5 years after losing 50+ pounds. No amount of exercise seemed to make a difference in the loose skin and abdominal fat.

I am 7 weeks post op and still have fluid that builds up though it seems to be decreasing weekly. At last drainage, it was under 10 cc's for a week. I had my surgical drains in for 5 weeks. I have done nothing strenuous and continue to wear my compression garment and have added an abdominal binder. I am starting to feel like this will never go away!

I am in my thirties, in good shape and don't understand why this is happening. Could there be something wrong with me that is causing this?

Great review?
