Help! Port problem!!

Hi all!

I was banded 11/12/12. -45 lbs. no complications thus far but right around my port my skin is making a circular indent in my skin. Its not apparent lying down just when standing or sitting. Please! Does anyone know what this could mean!?

Could be because you've lost weight, your port will be noticeable depending on where it is and how much weight you've lost, as long as you are not having pain, you should not worry too much.

Agreed. I've lost 120lbs and mine sticks out when I'm standing and REALLY sticks out when I lay down.on my back. Hopefully when I save up for a tummy tuck next year, the surgeon can swap it out for a lower profile or move it somewhere else. Right now it's about 2 inches to the right of my belly button

How did your arm and breast lift surgeries go? I know I'm going to have to have my arms done, there is no doubt about that - as long as I hold them out to the side, they look like normal sized arms, but when I look at the profile...ugh, it looks like an upside down steep hill and I can't stand it. Do you have any before and after pics?
