Asked By:loulou'scupcakes in Usadel, DE

Im 38 years old and 6 weeks ago i had a mini tummy tuck without muscle repair and lipo on the entire abdominal area. U have this pouch thing going on starting from my scar all the way past my belly..i feel some hard lumps in some areas but over all the upper part above my belly is soft unlike the bottom feels tight still...my doc says these lumps will go away on their own. is what u c in the pics fat or swelling that will resolve soon? Im worried that this will b similar to my end results. Thanx
