I had a full abdominoplasty 4years ago.I'm lean 106lbs, my plastic surgeon said it's harder to perform TTs on thinner patients because there's not as much to work with. My skin is still super lax & I have a bulge above my scar.What exactly is that..fat? Skin? I'm considering paying to have him revise to lower the scar but realistically my concern is the bump that can be seen through clothes (& defeats the purpose of a TT). Can this bump still exist even after a revision?What's going on here?
two years ago i had lipo and tummy tuck...now i have develop multiple bumps below my belly button and to the left of that. post surgery there was a small bump below belly button and the rest was numb about 5 months ago another bump showed up. my gyn had me do an ultrasound because he could feel them too. nothing showed up on ultrasound and showed results to my tt and lipo surgeon he was not concern now bumps 3x ln size! i see my surgeon in 3 weeks. any suggestions
I did mommy makeover a year ago and six months after that I had liposuction touch up over my belly again Right after the second liposuction I noticed a bump on my belly button Now its 4 months past but the bump has not been any better and look the same Only difference is some tiny strath marks that are new ! By the way I had CT scan and ultrasound done nothing was shown! Please advise me what I should do? I just want to mention that I did the surgery back in Iran ! Thanks
I had a tummy tuck nearly one year ago and just about two days ago Ive developed a painful red bump near an incision site under my belly button. Whats happening? Does my tummy tuck look ok or will I need a revision? This area is now very tender and I cant even wear pants over it. Please help.
Hi im 11 months post op and have been suffering with pain to the left side of my belly button and there is a bump there also i have had a scan and they said it was fine my surgeon is unsure of what it is and im sick off being in pain still wearing my garment and taking painkillers daily
I am 55, 126lbs. My weight hasnt changed since my procedure. I think that my procedure didnt work for some reason. I had a small bump before the surgery and I still have a bump, its just lower. I am so disappointed because now I also have scars! Also, I hate my belly button! Its discolored, bumpy and looks unnatural. It had been 6 months since my procedure. What do you think went wrong? What can I do to get a flat tummy?
I noticed a small firm bump forming about 5 wks post op tummy tuck.. just above my navel. Even today, at 4 mos. Post op, if I wear my binder consistently for multiple days the 'bump' isn't noticeable. The more I have my binder off and am active, the more the bump protrudes. It is very firm. Is that consistent with a pseudobursa or just muscle swelling?
First question Is this semi open wound should be white? Or even open? What do I do to care for it ? Second question I have a bump that is very tender witch they say I need few treatments of ultrasound therapy messages for it to go away. HELP! any advice is greatly appreciated.
I am 4 weeks post FTT. At my day 5 doctor visit, we noticed a red bump at the top of the incision. I figured it was a stitch coming out, and the nurse tried to coax it out w/ sharp tweezers, but nothing came of it. Yesterday while massaging the incision, I realized that the bump was no longer red and was just skin colored, and underneath it feel like a small pebble. The PS nurse said it would go away by itself eventually or I can try to get it dug out again. No infection. What should I do?
Had my TT in Agu 17 but by Jan all the swelling was gone and still had flabby skin and belly button was slightly to the left. My PS said that bec my umbilical hernia was so bad he had trouble with the belly button. I got a second TT to fix the bb and rest of skin, but now: 1. My bb hasnt healed and my dr says its normal but Im starting to worry 2 yesterday I saw a bump in lower abs. It doesnt hurt, move. Is it a granuloma? My PS Is away n texted me to wear the post-op girdle, will this help?
