45 Yr Old Tummy Tuck Deformed Scarred Tummy

I've exercised and tried to stay fit but my stomach area would not respond. It looked deformed from a previous surgery and oregnancy. I finally decided take the plunge after a close friend got a tummy tuck from dr rios and had excellent results. I wanted to do it right away but had to wit until summer due to recovery time requirements.so far I am happy with he progress so far.

Excited about appt tomorrow. Hopefully, my drain will be removed. This pic is com his morning.

I developed two scabs on my scar but they have gotten much smaller in the last week. I contacted dr rios' office about them through Facebook messenger and he called me almost immediately after so I was very happy about that. He told me to continue treating it the same as I had been which was just with soap and water during my bath and continue applying gauze bandaging to cover it afterwards. I was relieved that it wasn't anything serious.
Well, my tummy looks awesome in the morning I hen it swells up throughout the day. I keep telling myself that the final results are te to come.
So far, I am extremely pleased with my dr and his staff and the treatment and patient care they provide and I love my results so far. I am posting my 3-week pic.
