Asked By:MermomRN in Virginia Beach, VA

I had a tummy tuck on 2/25 and I don’t how to feel about the results. I have deep vertical lines on my incision where the PS says is quilted stitches and once the dissolve they will go away. Also I have a darken, hard area above my incision. My PS says that it doesn’t look infected and it was a result of sensitivity from steri-strips, but I am super concerned.
