How fast will my incisions heal after a tummy tuck or abdominoplasty surgery?
Your incisions should be healed by the third month, but they may heal at different rates, one side a little faster than the other. Depending on the technique and areas treated, you may have a little more swelling in one place than in another. This is normal. When the incisions have fully healed, however, they should look very similar. Your scars may appear to worsen during the first 3 to 6 months as they heal, but this also is normal. The scars normally take over a year or two to flatten, fade, and fully mature.
