I’m one day post op (I know, very early). When I looked down I was really upset as it doesn’t look like most other “after” pictures. Theirs lots of creasing near the scar? Dr said this will go in time but I’m not sure if this is true. Theirs a stitch above the new belly button, will this go? I had Lipo and tummy tuck and wanted to achieve a flat stomach.
Answer: Will these vertical creases disappear after recent tummy tuck? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. In most cases this pleating of your skin will improve given sufficient time. As the swelling resolves, and tissues soften, the creases will b less appearance. Hang in there as it appears that you will have a nice result.

Based on your description, you are very early in your recovery process. There is still swelling present and incisions haven't healed yet. It may take up to six months for all the swelling to go down.

In other words, creases and other irregularities along the scar line should dissipate over the course of next met several weeks/months. Although easier said than done, patience will be your best friend moving forward. Overall, you seem to have a very nice early outcome. Best wishes.
