I am about a 1 year post op from a full tummy tuck with muscle repair. Everything was great up until about 6 months post op. Then I started to notice a lower bulge that was constant. I eliminated dairy and restricted carbs to see if that was the answer but it's not. I was petite to begin with and basically had the muscle repair for a little loose skin and really for my diastasis. 5'6 and 118lbs. I don't think my MR has failed per say but could this be overly loosening of muscle repair? Pics!

Answer: 5'6, 118lbs - can muscle repair in a TT over-loosen over a period of time?
