I just made six months post op from my tummy tuck. Over all I like the look but I do feel my skin is stretchy and when I sit I don’t feel my stomach super flat. I don’t know if I am still swollen or will need a possible revision. I have my follow up appt next week and not sure what to expect. How tight should my stomach be? I am 5ft, 128lbs and weigh the same prior to having the TT. I also had muscle repair.

Answer: Swelling after Tummy-Tuck Thank-you for your query. Most of the swelling should be gone by now although the final results may take upto one year from surgery. You look good and the tightness appears adequate. The small amount of bulge you see, may be from some Intra abdominal fat, which will respond to working out and low carbohydrate diet. Please discuss all your concerns with your surgeon at your appointment. All the best!
