I am 10 weeks post op and my stomach has indents and my belly button looks fake can I get this fixed or will it go away and belly button will go in more
Answer: Tummy Tuck Result At 10 weeks postoperatively, you are still very early in your healing process. It can take several months for swelling to fully dissipate. It is far too early to evaluate your current result as final. The scarring of your belly button should fade to look more natural with time, however if you remain unhappy with its appearance after a year or so, a revision of the belly button scar can be performed. I recommend discussing these concerns with your surgeon as well. Best of luck!

Answer: Why does my stomach look uneven? Thank you for your question and photo! Your stomach may appear uneven for many different reasons that may or may not be permanent. It is still very early in your healing so your concerns may work themselves out in time. That being said, if you are still unhappy with your results after 3-6 months, you can consult with your plastic surgeon to see if anything can be done to fix the issues that you have with your results.
