I hAd a full abdominoplasty 11 years go. It has always let very tight, and "dips in" at the suture area above my pubis, which has since given me a FUPA. I have never stopped feeling like he front of my lower abdomen is a corset. It feels hard and u have no feeling up through my belly button. I assume I have a lot of scar tissue by now. Are there surgeries that I can have to remove some of the scar tissue and feel "released" in his area, without losing more feeling?
