I have deep dents on either side of my body after Liposuction. What can I do? (photos)

Compassionate8605
I have deep dents on either side of my body. I can put my thumb inside the dent. I had liposuction of the hips/flanks and upper back. I was told to get lymphatic massages, wear my compression garment, and drink lots of water. Is there anything else that I can do? Are these dents normal? Why does it look like this?
