Hi All, I am sharing my one year post op photos. Although I have bought a bunch of new bikinis I am trying to mostly use the two original ones as a point of reference. I am doing well, still have slight numbness in my tummy. My scar has gotten a bit wider from where the drain holes were. I think the scar strips actually made the scar worse in this area. I had a lot of stitches poking through which caused this area to remain oozie and raw. I tried to let it heal and dry up before using the strips in this area again. I hope it fades away more in the upcoming months. If not, maybe I can do a scar revision. I hope everyone is healing nicely! I am very grateful and happy about my new tummy and cute belly button. It's nice to look back on my journey at the one year point and know I made the right decision. I think it's important to note that in my head I had a certain image of myself after tummy tuck (flawless) but in reality nothing is perfect but I think I look pretty darn good and I hope to continue to improve as I work towards my goal weight of 135 (at 149 now). Happy healing to all!
