You look absolutely great, where in NZ are you and who was your surgeon - I am in Chch and currently looking for a surgeon who does the drain less technique:)

Going well! The seromas are almost 100% flat. The PS did stick a needle in but couldn't get anything out. On the pathway to abs, back in the gym!

Update with wound pics

researcher02
The little seroma has gone down, id estimate it's now 60% of the size it was the other day. I've been wearing the binder almost 24 hours a day so it's probably helped. I changed the tape and put some scar ointment on so took some pics of the wound. It's feeling a bit ropey/hypertrophic on the right and middle. I'll start massaging it each night in bed. The right is healing beautifully and is so flat. I noticed today for the first time that my scar is different on each side. It goes further around on the left and turns down a bit, on the right it ends sooner and doesn't turn down. I'm not that bothered by it because it's not very obvious, but I still wonder why that would happen. I guess it's hard to see where the scar is going to end up when you're removing skin until you remove the skin, and you can't put it back! Overall I'm happy with how I'm healing. I went to an event the other day for 12 hours without the binder and was fine. I stand and sleep completely 100% straight and no longer feel the pulling/tightness feelings. It still hurts a bit to roll over in bed. If I lean forward (pic included) you can see some of the internal sutures from the progressive tension technique aka drainless tummy tuck. My bellybutton is still swollen apparently. I can't see the scar of my bellybutton at all. I hope it deflates a bit and gets a bit flatter but that will probably expose the incision of where it's attached. Overall at this point, I think the surgeon has done a tremendous job

Hi! You are looking amazing!!! Can you tell me a little about the drainless technique? I am new to the TT community. I am getting one on march 7th and I haven't had the chance to talk to my PS about it much.
