Is It Normal to Get New Bruises on my Stomach 2 Weeks After Having a Tummy Tuck and Lipo?

It is unusual to have new bruising after 2 weeks.  I recommend that you have your plastic surgeon take a look to make sure that you did not have any late bleeding, especially if you have noticed an increase in swelling.  Sometimes patients will start to increase their activity levels when starting to feel better the second week and you are at risk for bleeding for around 2 weeks.  Good luck.

Sometimes bruising can appear a few days or a couple weeks after your abdominoplasty.  In most cases, this can be a normal occurence and is due to some deep bruising that has just worked its way to the surface.  However, you should be concerned if your abdomen also begins to enlarge and feels more painful and tighter than before.  That may be an indication that you have some late bleeding and you should let your plastic surgeon know immediately.
