I am noticing the lower abdomen is puffy. It is hard above the TT scar but on the pubis it is squishy jiggly feeling. Its been like this for awhile and not getting bigger or smaller. Does this look like I will need a revision due to lack of elasticity? My PS did Lipo the Pubis area. My PS is 5 hours away so I would like a few opinions before going back in July to discuss with him. (Before belly after Twins)
