I had a tummy tuck 8 months ago, along my incision line and since surgery, I have 4 hard nodules under the skin. I assume these are from fat necrosis , as I did experience this post-op (small area). Maybe a mass of dead tissue?? So, 1st I am wondering if this is or can be an issue health-wise, and also how can I get rid of them? Size is maybe dime-nickle size? Does massage help? Concerned as its been a while since surgery to still have these. Thank you in advance!
