Scar tissue build up on mons pubis after abdominal lipo. What procedure can be done to remove this protrusion of scar tissue?

Westsiderr
I had liposuction of the abdomen done 2 years ago and the "swelling" that dropped down to my mons pubis never resolved. 6 months ago I had additional liposuction done to reduce the mound and "break up scar tissue", but still see no results. My dermatologic surgeon said it was likely all scar tissue. What procedure can be done to remove these 2-3 inches of scar tissue causing the MASSIVE protrusion? I am so self conscious-- the bulge shows through dresses and yoga pants almost like a penis :(
