During the healing process of liposuction, there is frequently swelling of the area from fluid that accumulates and can't easily be cleared until the lymphatics have a chance to regrow. This is probably what is happening in your case. I'd give it about another week or two. If it hasn't gone away or is growing in the meantime, I'd contact your surgeon to be seen. The other causes for this can be infection (if you have any fever or temperature or redness, go there immediately) or a collection of fluid called a seroma. Seromas typically can grow and are not very hard, but if this doesn't go away, that may be a possibility that needs to be reviewed by your surgeon.
