Well I don't go back to my doctor for another month. He mentioned doing injections for the scar tissue around my belly button but I wanted to know if there is anything that can be done about my shrinking belly button. I kept it "packed" up until the day I was instructed I didn't have to do so anymore. Can it be fixed in a non-surgical manner? Widened back to where it doesn't resemble a BB gun hole? But just curious on your opinions. Surgery was February 6th of this year. I want it back the way it was.

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early in the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation, discomfort and irregularities are normal.
If you have any...
My protocol for seromas are as follows
Allow at least 2 weeks of adequate drainage of the area
If the drainage is less than 20 cc in a twenty four hour period then remove one drain (I usually have 2)
If there is a persistent seroma after the last drain is removed, consider...
At least 6 months….you have to have enough time for
healing and recovery from your c-section prior to proceeding with a tummy
tuck.This also allows time for you to
return to your pre-pregnancy weight as well.
