If I'm allergic to gauze pads what is the alternative for me?
Robert N. Young, MD, FACS (retired) says:

This is an uncommon allergy to have, but should not prevent you from getting a Tummy Tuck. Be sure to tell your surgeon so that he/she can prepare and come up with alternatives to keep you comfortable and irritation free.

Still have loose skin after tummy tuck when sitting down. Do I need a revision? (Photo)
Raymond Jean, MD says:

I would not worry at this point your final results from tummy tuck can take 3-6 months.  Over this time swelling will decrease and skin will further tighten.  I would not consider revision until at least 9 months post op but hopefully you will not need a revision.  Best of luck...
