I had a tummy tuck when I was 16 and a year later had another surgery to reduce the scar. Unfortunately that second surgery had complications which lead to the right side of my abdomen more disfigured. Not only my abdomen,but also my mons pubis. It sticks out and I feel like it’s because of how my scar healed. Can both these things be fixed? Is my scar causing my pubic area to protrude out so much?
