Asked By:sagonzalezbonk in Green Bay, WI

I developed necrosis after my tummy tuck. They opened my incision about the length of a middle finger to take the bad out. That it is looking good and healing nicely. The dr said to wet dry dress it till healed and that it would close on its own. Just wondering how long roughly i can expect to have this hole in my abdomen?
