Tummy tuck drain holes, 9 months post op, is it normal to have such deep indentations.

Asked By:chocpaws in Wichita Falls, TX

I had a TT in May 2016. There are two very obvious "dimples" (indentations) where the drains were. Is it normal to have such deep indentations?I thought I would just have scars.
