i had my tummy tuck almost 13 weeks ago. i am just wondering when the incisions stop being sore and having bits of puss release? everything seems to be healing just fine and there isn't reason for concern, other than it being tender. just wondering when that goes away?

Answer: Massage, Massage, Massage What you are experiencing sounds completely normal. Incisions heal at varying rates and 13 weeks is still relatively early post op. I am sure your surgeon is recommending that you continue to massage your incisions daily, possibly even twice daily. This will help your incisions continue to heal well. Scars can often appear more discolored at three months post op and then will start to lighten over time. If you have specific concerns contact your surgeon. Good luck to you and enjoy your new look, congratulations on taking the step to proceed with such an amazing surgery.
