Please help - what could've gone wrong after two tummy tucks? (Photo)

Asked By:Happytimes in Chicago, IL

I had a tummy tuck 6/2013 and 6 months later my stomach remained huge. My doctor said he couldn't explain why. I and a CT scan to see if my sutures came apart but that rendered no answers. I had a second tummy tuck shortly after and as of today my stomach looks like I am pregnant! Please help what could've gone wrong?!
