Your lower abdominal skin can be tightened further along with lowering the scar. It is too early to have that done and I advise holding off for six months. Ideally it would be converted to a full tummy tuck, however if the umbilicus was floated this would not be possible.
Thank you for asking about your swelling 4 months after your tummy tuck.It is possible that your swelling is from working out in the gym.However the only way to be sure is to see your own surgeon for an exam and discussion of your concerns. Hope this helps. Best wishes. Elizabeth Morgan MD PHD...
