8 weeks post-op. Why isn't my incision fully healing? (photos)

An exam is needed to know for sure but you may have some suture knots that need to be addressed. This can be done in your surgeon's office. Once removed the area tends to heal well with minimal home care. See your surgeon for an evaluation.

Your surgeon who has examined you will be the best one to ask. However, you may be reacting to the suture material used. Once dissolved, things should hopefully settle down, unless you have an infection.

Hello and thank you for the question. Wound breakdown after tummy tuck can be from a variety of reasons, including excessive tension on the incision from taking too much skin, poor blood supply from aggressive liposuction, and smoking among others. I would closely follow with your surgeon. These wounds should heal spontaneously with local wound care. Once everything has healed, then a revision surgery can be done in a delayed fashion to correct the widened scar, if ever needed. I would keep the area clean and avoid any strenuous activity/lifting and smoking (if you are a smoker). Your surgeon is the best person to talk to.
