I had a tummy tuck 5 years ago. I had a small area that did that but the Dr went in and re-cut the area cleaned it and it was alright. It was because I was a smoker...Even though I quit before and after the surgery.
The biggest problem I had was that one side of the scar got raised and very thick. He had to re-cut that as well and now its ok.

I had breast a reduction in 06. Everything went ok. BUT I have a bad scar again on one side under the breast. The Dr told me its a keltoid (I think thats how you spell it LOL) scar and that I am just prone to it. I was suppose to have it re-cut and fixed but I haven't yet. It doesn't bother me and I just don't want to get cut again.

I am sorry you are going through this. I know a women who went through this too and went through several Dr's finally another surgeon at George Washington Hospital here in DC had to go in and re-do the entire operation. I do know she was a heavy smoker as well. I don't know if you smoke or not but I know its what contributed to mine and hers.

As far as the tightness. I had to have the Dr remove fluid from my stomach twice a week. That was due to the drainage tube falling out too soon. Not the Dr's fault just happened. I know I had a few problems but I am for the most part happy with the surgeries....

Again sorry about your surgery and I hope you find a doctor who can help you. Best of luck to you.
