Notice the limited bruising and swelling. Other techniques may not look this good so soon after surgery. The white tapes are SteriStrips that further align the skin during early healing. Tissues evolve after tumescent tummy tuck. The big change happens on the operating table. Fluid from the tumescent technique is absorbed over the next several hours to days.

Swelling from the zone of injury then improves over the next several days to weeks. Scars and final tissue changes will take longer to evolve.
