I had a bbl and lipo on my stomach, arms, and legs. On my arms and legs I do see some slight improvement. However on my stomach, I have pooch in my lower belly but its hard. On the sides, the shape is better but when I bend or sit, there are rolls that seem like fat. I did have rolls before but the doctor said after surgery i wouldnt have it. I also have lumps and in some areas the skin looks loose. Will this improve? I only weigh about 2 pounds less than pre-surgery.
