Answer: Knots Along Your Tummy Tuck Incision Healing after a #tummy tuck requires time. Your abdomen will feel tight for a month or longer. If you have had a muscle repair as well (the usual case), you will feel the most tightness down the center of your tummy where the doctor has actually repaired your muscles. The purpose of the post-procedure #garment is to provide some gentle #support and to reduce swelling following a #TummyTuck or #Abdominoplasty. If it feels too tight or causes pain, take it off. Patients wear the #elastic garment for several weeks after surgery, as directed by their doctor. Some choose to wear it longer for several months for comfort.If the #knots along your #incision do not dissipate naturally, it's suggested to call your doctor to be examined in-person.

Answer: Tummy tuck knots Sometimes, the stitches under the skin can form little knots as they are dissolving. Usually that issue resolves on its own, but if it persists, then you should let your plastic surgeon evaluate them in person. Best of luck!

Answer: Knots or bumps on incision line of tummy tuck. It can be normal to have knots along the incision after a tummy tuck. Most of the time they are from granulation or scar tissue around the sutures that were placed and as such should go away with time as the sutures dissolve. Just keep checking with your plastic surgeon and they will make sure everything is okay.

Answer: Is it normal to have little knots along your tummy tuck incision? Thank you for sharing your question and congratulations on your tummy tuck procedure! Along the incision line it is not uncommon to feel the sutures underneath your skin. As your results mature the stitches will soften and dissolve to leave you a smoother, softer appearance. Hope this helps.
