Hi - I had a TT without Lipo 11 months ago - my scar area is thick and I look like I have a belly worse than before I went in - on one side I have some bulge as per pics - it sits right above my knicker line so protrudes badly with underwear - I cannot wear any tight dress or tops even leggings you can see this. Im told it’s normal as skin above scar has fat in it & will go when I have lipo but I cannot afford the lipo at this place (another 20k - already paid £19k for a mummy makeover) :(
