I am 56 years old Asian female. 5'3" with brown skin. I weight 143 before the surgery and 133 after. I am active, go to the gym 5 days and swim 70 laps twice a week. I have a scar just below my pubic area and it was stitched poorly that it is budging on one side. I have some bulging in my abdomen when sitting. Just not happy and I continue to stress about it. It will be a year in December.

Answer: Tummy tuck results Dear Pinay2u, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Answer: Incisions Typically a vertical incision that is located immediately above the horizontal incision is representative of the closure of your belly button when the skin was removed. From the photo yours appears to be a little higher than typical. Your surgeon should be able to confirm if this is the case or if it is a result of something else.
