I had a mini tummy tuck and muscle repair done about 7 months ago. I have two large bulges above my scar and am wondering if this is normal or if it’s a seroma or something else? All of The pants that I wore pre surgery don’t do up anymore and I haven’t gained any weight or changed my diet. The last three pictures that I’m including are the day before surgery

Dear rhinonose,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Given your stated goals, a mini-tummy tuck will help tighten and smooth the transition from the lower abdominal skin to the pubis. In the process, the pubic area will be downsized and lifted to help with the rejuvenation. Of course, with the tension of skin removal, it can elongate the umbilicus...
Hello, thank you for your question and the pics. As far as I can see on the pics, you don't even need a mini tuck, maybe the picture is not able to tell the full story of your abdomen
