Asked By:carebear1005 in Hudsonville, MI

I am seven weeks postop mommy makeover. I had a full tummy tuck, Lipo, breast reduction and lift. I'm very happy with the results but I am concerned about the swelling after seeing some others photos. I wear spanx and my binder 24/7 unless showering. Is 7 weeks too early to see this type of swelling? I am not exercising yet and just do moderate activity. It does not get better or worse in the morning. Hoping to get some expert opinions on how this looks! Thanks!
