Asked By:Persistent781877 in McRae-Helena, Georgia

One year post op TT with MR, lipo to mons only. Weightloss patient prior to TT of 88 lbs . Plans for scar revision and extension of scar to remove more excess skin that has become lax. How long can I expect swelling? Does it last as long as initial procedure and is it as bad ? Will I likely require compression again ?
