Six months post tummy tuck with bulge in upper abdomen (Photos)

May 18, 2022
Asked By:nomadd in Miami, Florida

Six months ago i had a tummy tuck with muscle repair and liposuction to upper and lower abdomen. I am 5'7" and weigh 145 lbs. I have always been very slim but having three babies really stretched out my tummy, leaving me with a severe diastasis. My stomach is rounded and not flat at all. In fact, i have a slight bulge above my belly button. I have seen my Plastic surgeon about it and he is suggesting a revision (which i do not want to do). Why isnt my stomach flat?
