What Would Make Buttocks "Fall" Almost Immediately After a Lower Body Lift?

3 weeks ago I had a circumfrential body left. I was told post surgery, my buttocks was pert and round. Shortly after surgery, my buttucks completely flattened. What happened? I have abnormally loose tendons, could this have any bearing on loose connective tissue supporting a larger mass?

Lower body lift

A lower body lift is a procedure that includes a buttock lift. Anytime the buttock is lifted, the upper buttock and lower back tissues are excised. This flattens the buttocks in every type of patients. Thus, most post-bariatric plastic surgeons use the lower back tissue to augment the buttocks at the time of the buttocks lift.
