Asked By:ddk in Spokane, WA

I had lipoabdominoplasty two weeks ago, my stomach looked like this from day one, had hard area above incision day one but has gotten harder and remained the same for two weeks. It is not fluid, not an infection. I know lipoabdominoplasty is not very common, is there a surgeon who is very familiar with it able to tell me if this is normal?
