What Would Cause Vertical Scars to Appear 2 Weeks Post Tummy Tuck?

July 15, 2010
Asked By:2905anon in chicago

2 weeks post 12/23/09 TT, vertical scars appeared ½ in. apart running from belly button to TT scar & extending above BB. Above BB not as deep & nearly gone. Below BB - 1/8 in. wide & white. PS said binder pinched skin causing scars. Binder was too big. Is that possible? What else could cause this? Do white scars like this fade completely? (photo attached)
