Didn't Get a New Belly Button but Skin is Tight - Salem, MA

I ended up having the whole thing re-done and I am so much happier. When he detached my belly button he was able to pull the skin much further down. This helped to get rid of more stretch marks. They are now low enough that I can wear a bikini. I have a scar around my belly button, but it is not that bad. Well worth the trade off. I say get the full tummy tuck!!!

Looks like swelling. It should go down. Give it some more time.

I am 1 month post op and I also fould that at two weeks I was not getting any better. At three weeks I started to feel like my old self again, but I am still very numb and it still hurts to wear jeans. I wrap an ace bandage around my belly and that seems to help. My lower abs are also still very swollen.
