Answer: Tummy Tuck Swelling. It does appear from your picture that one side is a bit more swollen than the other. I would advise you to see your plastic surgeon very soon or at least call him or her to further evaluate the swelling. An in-office examination is the only way to help figure out how you are healing.

Answer: Tummy Tuck / Abdominoplasty / Liposuction / Mommy Makeover / Reverse Abdominoplasty I appreciate your question. Since there has been a change in your post op course, please contact your surgeon so he/she can examine you and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan at this time. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck!
