Question

Or if it’s simply organic contents? My tummy tuck is now a year old. I’m quite satisfied overall, but I can see that there is a small pouch around the incision. It’s firm above and below the incision. And it’s always somewhat smaller in the morning. - Is this a plication failure? Or maybe just the content of my belly?

Dear JNicolas,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.Daniel Barrett, MD

HI. Your abdomen is not flatten as it should be. Further details and evaluation is needed to recommend and tell you what should be done.International  Member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS)
