What are these red marks appearing all over my stomach after tummy tuck 2 months ago? (Photos)

Question

I had a tummy tuck two months ago. Most of my stretch marks were removed. I was however left with a few white vertical ones that are white and very old, faded. I am now two months post op and a few weeks ago all of a sudden red marks started appearing all over my stomach. I don’t know what this is. I have forward these pics to my doctor with no response as of yet. I am very concerned. Hoping somebody can tell me what it is and what I can do about it.

Dear Prettyyeyesgirl,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong for sure. Based on your photos, it looks like stretch marks. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS
