I had a tummy tuck in October of 2023 in Tijuana. The surgery went well but as I was healing I noticed a small bulging above my belly button. The longer I’m on my feet the more bulging is noticeable. My primary care doctor ordered an ultrasound because she thought it could be a hernia but it’s actually a small Seroma measuring 3.6 x 2.4 x 1 cm . I am not sure I want to go back to Tijuana to remove it but am having a hard time finding a surgeon here in Seattle area who will . I have been told this is a straight forward procedure. What will happen if I never have it removed?
