Lower Ab Lumps After Smart Lipo

I Just Got Smart Lipo of the Thighs, Flank/ab's (Upper/lower) and a Breast Aug Done 17 Days Ago. I am very pleased with my results except for the lower ab's (about an inch above the belly button down) before the procedure, I was smooth..now I have these horrid lumps. It still hurts a bit..and is numb in spots, so I'm thinking it's due to some swelling/ skin needing to tighten? I am overall smaller, but I don't want to be small and lumpy, that's no good! As of right now (with the exception of the breast implants) I looked alot better in a bikini before!
