*took no less than a month to heal (little holes)

I hear you girl, l am 4 months post op and l still feel tightness and numbness on my abdomen, last month l kept smelling this nasty odor coming from (l thought my anus) and kept showering and stuff, and l couldn't get rid of the nasty odor, any way, l finally discovered that it was my belly button!! after two months l thought it had healed and l stopped paying attention to it and now there is this smell and stuff coming out of it, so l laid down and started to pour alcohol in it and cleaned it with a cute tip, now is good, l still clean it every night l pour alcohol or hydrogen peroxide either one, and cover it with a cotton ball, but honestly, if l would have had an infection it would have been my fault for not cleaning it like l should have. My scar is still tender and red on some areas, but l take it one day at a time and l am trying to give my poor body that has been thru so much, time to recover.

Did your belly button close on you or why the smell? I asked you because mine closed on me and there was my belly button and skin over it and it was like skin grew a wall on the outside with a teeny tiny hole on top and dr c said the hole would fill up with sweat, water from when I shower, and dirtiness. So she opened it and had it redone, she said other wise it would just drain on me with out notice and it would give a foul smell. My bb looks raw. I use gauze I put in it all the time. Do you pouring the alcohol in it hurts? I am also taking baby steps and having tons of patience.

When l discovered it was my bb the reason for the smell, l immediately cleaned it with a Q-tip, got all the junk out of there, there was a little bit of blood in there so l am assuming it wasn't closed all the way, when l poured the alcohol in it, l felt a little sting but nothing bad, just like a mosquito bite, now l feel nothing but the coldness of the alcohol, l posted some pictures for you to see it.... gosh, yes you do need tons of patience with this surgery, hang in there.

Thank you for the pics! It looks healed up and nice! I see you are using scar strips? What brand? Do u recommend, see a diff?

I am using "Scar Away" l bought them on Amazon for l believe $57.00 dollars, they are working just not as fast as l want them too! Lol, they itch a little bit but they are comfortable, l will post pics, of my scar in a few months to see if they really worked.

thank you! I'll get some, I heard they are good as well as kitocell

Thank you! my booty.......mmmm, well, I don't know, it is a bit flat but l don't know if it is because l haven't worked out in a while or what, l went to see Dr. Cardenas las month and she said she could make my scar much better and do lipo on my upper tummy as well as put more fat on my butt, I don't know what l am going to do yet. l don't think l want a bigger but.

I will post some new photos of my scar how is healing etc :)

I had an extended tummy tuck with muscle repair.

You look great! Really worth the pain and sacrifice.

Thank you! l can't wait to go back in two months and have lipo on my upper abdomen... l am not 100% satisfied with it.. l will try diet and exercise first thou.

Thank you Anna_17! l wish l could tell you that it was all me, thru diet and exercise but no!!! it was the skilled hands of Dr. Cardenas :)
