How can I get my flat stomach back after myomectomy surgery? (Photo)

Question

I had a myomectomy 1 year ago and my abs were flat. I work out regularly and eat healthy but ever since the surgery I have had swelling above the incision that I really want to get rid of without having more surgery. The swollen are is somewhat hard and I massage and stretch it regularly but see no to very little results. Please help, I really want to feel confident in my tight dresses again.

I see what you are concerned about.  Without a direct exam, I cannot be absolutely sure, but my best guess is that you have some localized muscle separation.  A mini tummy tuck may well be a good solution.  See a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area--but make sure that person has some years of experience.  Good luck.
