I am 6 weeks post op, why is my stomach sill hard.

Some degree of temporary firmness is common after liposuction. This usually goes away after several weeks to months.Massage and compression often help if advised by your plastic surgeon.

Thank you for the question. It is very common to have swelling for 6 weeks following a tummy tuck. My patients usually wear a compression garment like Spanx for 6 weeks after surgery. This often helps reduce the swelling. It is also possible that you have a seroma, or fluid collection under the skin. It would be best to have your surgeon evaluate this in case you have a seroma. Good luck.

Hello. Great question. Pictures and an in person examination will be needed to properly address your dents. Please follow up with your surgeon. If concerns persist, please visit a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed surgical plan to achieve your desired results.

Congratulations on your surgery! Swelling is still expected at this stage of recovery and it can cause the surgical area to feel hard. It may be that as you are returning to normal routines that the swelling is related to the increased activity. This should improve as you continue to heal. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon. It is important that you feel comfortable and confident during your recovery.

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early on the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation is normal.
I suggest my patients to a compression garment, 24/7 for the first 4 weeks, to get the best results.
It is important for the compression garment to be very tight, for it to help with the swelling, after surgery. Please, follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)
