Is the pouched look 4 weeks after tummy tuck just swelling? I had a full Tummy Tuck 4 weeks ago and now I'm nervous because I still look like I have a pouch. Will it go away?

Answer: Still very early, but likely just some swelling Assuming you have to fluid collection present, such as a seroma, you likely just have some normal swelling that will resolve on its own with time. To be safe, I would see your surgeon so he can examine you to verify this. If there is some fluid present, however, he may want to aspirate it to speed up the healing.
