Vagina Swelling After Tummy Tuck?

Question

Had tummy tuck with lipo, it will be a year in December. Still have swelling and top of vagina is always swollen! What could be the cause?

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

Given that you are 8 months out of your tummy tuck operation, residual “swelling” would be unusual. You may want to ask your plastic surgeon about this area of concern; he/she will be in the best position to advise you after direct examination.

	Sometimes, after tummy tuck surgery, patients see their suprapubic area more clearly/directly than they did before the operation. Sometimes, additional surgery (direct skin excision and/or liposuction surgery may be necessary to improve the contour of this suprapubic area.

	I hope this helps.

Swelling after a tummy tuck is common and swelling often flows dependently.  It is pretty common  for the groin region to be swollen.
