Why is my Pubic Hairline and Scar Being Pulled Upwards After my Tummy Tuck?
Angela from FloridaJul 17, 2011
I am almost 3 weeks post-op tummy tuck. I am 5'8" and weigh 115 pounds. I chose the tummy tuck to remove stretch marks and loose skin so I could wear a bikini. The scar was made at my pubic hairline but now that I am trying to stand up straight, I have noticed that my scar and pubic hairline are much higher. I still am not even at a full upright position and am afraid of it continuing to pull upward. Now the scar and my pubic hair are visible when I wear a bathing suit or panties. Help?
