Loose Upper Abdominal Skin and Lower Abdominal Bulge Post-Tummy Tuck

I am 37 years old and had a circumferential tt with fleur de lis in April 09.At 5 months post op I expressed my dissatisfaction with the way my bb turned out and the lower abdominal bulge and upper abdominal fat/skin. My ps did a pubic lift, abd lipo and a belly button revision 6 mos ago. The bb revision did not hold and I still have the bulge (which is rock hard) and upper abd skin. PS said that he is afraid of tearing the fascia and said there is nothing more he can do. Opinions needed please
