After lipo and tt I still have muffin top. why?

bets102
I had a full tt and muscle repair done last year. I was unhappy because I had this big muffin top.. So he said lipo would take care of it. So, 2 weeks ago I had lipo done on my flanks, hips and "suppose to be my stomach". I still have the same big muffin top. Is this possible if he performed lipo on that part of my stomach? Im beginning to question if he just did my flanks. I am not a big obese person. He was supposed to do an anchor cut last year but he chose during the surgery not to do it.
