Are progressive tension sutures visible from the outside?
WildeMama7Jul 14, 2022
I just read a review of drainless tummy tucks by a board certified plastic surgeon in my area who says she prefers traditional abdominoplasty (with drains) because the progressive tension sutures used for a drainless tummy tuck can be obviously and indefinitely visible from the outside. Is this accurate?
