I had a full tummy tuck a month ago and although my sking was stretch marked and wrinkled before the surgery the wrinkles are much worse now. The surgeon told me he seperated the skin from the muscle with his hand, removed the navel but it didn,t need repostioning as it was almost in the same place when he pulled the skin down as far as it would go.
So as the wrinkly excess skin I had before the full tummy tuck is still there how is it going to becoem tight which was the whole point of the surgery. The bottom of my stomach is tighter but the sking is slightly sagging over the scar, is this likely to go? I have quite a lot of edema which the surgeon said can take up 3 or 4 months to go. I also had a brest lift and one breast is at least 2 cup sizes bigger than the other as it has a hematoma so is hard and I can,t see my niple over the top of it as its too swolen. The surgeon said this will take 3 to 4 motnhs to be reabsorbed, is this true? It had leaked old blood twice but that hasn,t made much difference to the size or harness lumpiness. Is this like to go or remain?Thanks
