I had a full Tummy Tuck with muscle repair with hip Liposuction three weeks ago. There were two drainage tubes on my pubic mound and got removed one week post-op.My right side where the drainage tube was is creating a dimple-like depression (sinkhole)and would like to know how to fix this before it becomes permanent. It looks rather deforming to my pubic structures.
I am wondering if this is normal that when I bend forward I get this dimple about an inch above my belly button and kinda a roll, would this indicate that the muscle repair in my upper abdomen didnt hold? Or is it just some fat that I can burn off? Also Im wondering about the kinda rolls I have on my sides that I never noticed much prior to my surgery, again is this just extra fat that I need to work off? I am 3 weeks post op, will my sides ever really be smooth?
I am 6mpo from my TT with MR and no lipo at all. My PS used sutures to anchor the skin to aliminate some of the fluids Im assuming. Anyway I woke up with several dimples that he assured me would all go away once sutures dissolve. They have all gone but one and its located about an inch from the corner right side of my bb. It makes about a dime size dimple and it doesnt seem like its going anywhere. Its very ugly. My TT was on 9/14/17. Do u think it will always be there? Thanks
I had limited swelling until 2.5 weeks po. Now after. That time, I have increased swelling with a pouch just above and below my incision. My moms pubis looks ridiculous. I have dimples where my drains were and a huge pouch in the middle. My ps tried to drain it, but no fluid came out.
I had a tummy tuck 2 weeks ago and am not able to stand any more straight than right after surgery. I don't feel like the incision is stretching when I try to straighten myself, or much pain. I feel a pull at and above the belly button, that's why I can't stand up. There's a dimple right above my new belly button, that straightens when I try to stand more straight and is more dimpled when I'm very hunched over. What might that be, and is this all normal?
I am 22 years old and had a tummy tuck (w/out tightening of muscles) and lipo. on inner & outer thighs. I am concerned about the dimpling of my inner right thigh. I try to massage the area when I can, wear spandex during the day to have compression, and wear a compression garment at night. Is this dimpling normal? If it is how long will it take fore me to see the final results? Will other procedures need to be done in the future to smooth the skin out?
