    Hi Dr- I'm about 3 months post recovery and while am pleased with my results, the bottom part of my stomach still feels a little spongy (below the belly button) The upper abs are all very tight. I saw my PS, who upon inspecting the lower abs told me this was all connective tissue and refused to tumesce the area and re-do a lipo since he said there was no fat left. Have you encountered this before, and are there any options for treatment? My PS recommended a corticosteroid shot, but I've never heard of this option and am concerned on the efficacy of this injection overall. Thanks Sean

    Thanks Dr. A friend of mine who's also a PS advised me to take a rolling pin for dough and massage my stomach lightly daily for 30 mins for about 2-4 weeks post surgery. Do you recommend this type of massage to free up the bumps? Also will the skin sag if the bumps go away?
