Answer: Wound Healing After Tummy Tuck Sara1962-I am sorry to hear about your wound healing problems. While uncommon, these types of complications can be very frustrating. Most cases require simple wound care, but when healing becomes prolonged or there is tunneling, a small revision surgery may help speed things along.It is very difficult for us to give advice without an in-person assessment and review of your medical records. I would encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon and if necessary, seek a second opinion.Good luck

Answer: I have a hole from my TT plus two tunneling wounds that are still open and getting bigger, what do I do? Thank you for sharing your question and I am sorry to hear of your wound healing difficulties. Unfortunately this will take several months to fully heal with conservative, local wound care but at least it appears to be clean and non-infected. Your body will need this amount of time to fill from the inside-out with the dressing changes you are likely performing daily. Hang in there!

Answer: Delayed healing The area looks like it is healing but still is open. Taking steps to optimize your nutrition and not expose yourself to tobacco or nicotine will also help your healing move along faster

Answer: Wound healing I am sorry that you are having complications. As noted below this will heal with wound care and time. No one can predict how long it will take to fully heal without serial exams and followup. Please follow closely with your plastic surgeon. I know it is frustrating but it will get better.
