Swelling can persist for many months after surgery. The incision sometimes feels firm and swollen for the longest period of time. One reason for this is that there are numerous sutures below the skin that can take many months to be absorbed. Even after healing, the tissue can remain firm...
Thanks for your question and photo. I am sorry that you are having concerns after your tummy tuck. From what I can see, you definitely have some asymmetry. It is unlikely that this will improve with time. I would recommend that you wait 6-12 months to let the swelling resolve...
