Melted fat after SlimLipo that is left behind dissolves and is resorbed by the body

I try to remove all of the liquid dissolved fat after SlimLipo. In fact I often "wash out" the dissolved fat by irrigating with saline solution. Some liquified or dissolved fat is left behind, it is impossible to remove it all. However the liquid fat does drain out through the incisions which are left open and on occasion I will insert a tiny drain to help remove the dissolved fat. Dissolved fat and partially damaged fat after SlimLipo continues to be removed by absorption... more

My incisions were not left open. After 3 weeks a needle aspiration was done but now the place where the bulge was drained has come back, only hard, and seems to be spreading.I look misshapen and am quite frightened what it all means.
