I'm a little over 2 weeks post tummy tuck. I've noticed some roundness in my mid section. I've also been feeling a sensation of liquid in under my skin. I'm worried that my incisions have popped or I have seroma or both

Answer: Contour after TT Hi. At this point, it could mostly likely either be seroma, or significant generalized swelling.Best to return to your surgeon for a seroma check and possible aspiration of any fluid.

Answer: Have my inner stitches popped or do I have seroma. Thank you for your question and series of photographs and I am sorry that your results have not been what you anticipated. It is difficult without an in-person examination to determine what may be taking place. Most commonly this is residual swelling from surgery which will spontaneously resolve but it would be important to voice your concerns to your surgeon to ensure that other issues are not taking place - discrete fluid collection, muscle laxity, or residual adipose tissue. Your surgeon is your best source of advice and assistance. Hope this helps.
