Tummy tuck skin adhesion?

November 23, 2016
Asked By:Canx5 in Ontario, CA

I am 7 months post tummy tuck. There is a skin to fascia adhesion next to my belly button from an incision that healed there. It now creates a deformity where my natural center line deviates to the left of the adhesion making me look very weird. Other people can notice it and wonder what's wrong with my stomach. Is there any way to easily fix this, release the adhesion, without being too invasive? I'm happy with the tummy tuck and very sad with this deformity. Thank you for your advice!
