Will exercise melt remaining fat after Liposuction? (photos)

October 14, 2014
Asked By:Eliza_beth in Houston, TX

Hello, I had a touch up lipo on my abdomen two weeks ago. I noticed a bulge that is uneven below my belly button. It feels soft and it doesn't hurt at all. But the area around it is hard and sore. Of course I'm wearing my compression garment. Is this swelling? Or remaining fat? It will even up if I massage? If I do crunches and exercise will the remaining fat cells melt? I don't have the money for another correction procedure. Thank you.
