Will these creases go away? (photo)

The abdominal binders are notorious for creases. These can lead to hyperpigmentation and scarring. Ask your surgeon for Reston foam and ointment (neosporin and later vitamin E) to reduce this problem. Good luck !

Thank you for your question! Once you remove the compression garments, and your swelling goes down, the creases should go away. In my practice I use special foam pads placed under the compression garments to help smooth the contour during the initial healing process. Please see your surgeon for specific post-op recommendations. If your surgeon is not board certified please seek the advice of a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in aesthetic and restorative body surgery.Good luck!Dr Schwartz

Dear zuleOnce teh pressure from the tube is removed your skin should come back to normal in hours. On occasion hyperpigmentation can be seen if there was too much pressure. I would not worry about it at all.
