I'm 6 weeks post I'm still having pleating is gonna smooth or I have to return to see my surgeon
You are still early in the healing process and this is normal and should subside on its own. The tightness, swelling, numbness, lumpiness and hardness after a surgery like you had typically persists at least 8 weeks after the surgery then slowly goes away. In my experience, daily massage of the hard areas makes the biggest difference in getting rid of it sooner rather than later. It can easily take 4-6 months to see results. Your scars will also flatten and fade but usually takes 9-12 months. Be sure to keep any scheduled follow up appointments you have with your surgeons for his evaluation and advice. You appear to be healing well so far. Hope this helps. Dean Vistnes.
