I had a small bowel obstruction caused by adhesions. No bowel was resected. I have a 3 inch abdominal scar which has healed really well. I was physically fit before surgery and am back to full exercising including abdominal exercises. I had scheduled my tummy tuck before my abdominal surgery.
Answer: Adhesion surgery You could probably have a tummy tuck about three months after surgery for the adhesions. I would wait until after the adhesion surgery to plan out your tummy tuck depending on where those scars are placed.
