Extra skin left and possible failed muscle repair (Photo)

December 7, 2023
Asked By:NicoleKPevny in Everett, Washington

I had a Mommy makeover done back in the end of May which included a breast lift full tummy tuck with muscle repair. I’m wondering if not enough skin was removed during my procedure, because I still seem to have pooling skin near the incision line when I stand and especially when I sit. The skin is very thin in this area and seems as though it should’ve been removed. I also have a bulge up above my bellybutton area that is firm and gets worse as the day progresses. Thoughts?
