I'm 9 days post op from full tummy tuck and tummy lipo. This morning I noticed that from mons to under navel, my skin looks brownish blue. No pain except some tightness, no drainage other than a little out of my drain tube sites (tubes were removed 2 days ago). Been feeling really good, maybe doing too much too soon.
