Tummy tuck gone wrong? 2 months post op. (photos)

September 21, 2017
Asked By:vgraboyes in escondido, ca

2 months out extended tummy tuck with lipo and no muscle repair (I was told I didn't need it). I realize I might still have swelling, but I'm feeling pretty bummed about my results. I spoke with my surgeon about repairing the the problems at the end of my scars, and about how he may need to cut extra skin off my right front area. I'm feel like he should have recommended the fleur de lis tummy tuck. I notice now when I bend over I have lots of hanging skin on either side. Any advice is appreciated.
