Almost a year post op
These pictures were today at 11pm November 16 after an active day I'm unsure if what I'm seeing is normal for a successful tummy tuck. My upper abs are good but my lower portion is not flat and never has been. Seems like I need more Lipo or something...not sure but I know I should be totally flat by now or at least I thought I should be. I see my PS next month although now I'm thinking I should call and schedule an appointment sooner. This just doesn't seem normal. Also, I hate that my scar includes my old belly button. My PS is supposed to do something to it at my appointment but I'm not sure. I'm hoping he decides to do more Lipo and revise my scar. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Pics
I just realized the pics didn't upload earlier...
What I didn't say earlier is that I'm feeling much better after my appointment today. I'm praying that I'll really see a large reduction in swelling by month 6 but I realize, I may not totally see the swelling gone until around month 12.

Scar thickening
Wanted to post a quick update. I just left an appointment w my PS...he said my scar is not forming a keloid he said it's just thickening. He said we'll monitor for a month and will do a cortisone (sp?) shot if it doesn't improve or gets worse. He gave me a new silicone sheet to try. We'll see. Fingers crossed.
Intermediate Pain is normal...my current swelling is also normal
