How to address my plastic surgeon about my results.

leesi2016
I am 4 months post vaser of upper/lower abs. I have a protrusion of fat around my belly button, seroma on my pelvis, and loose belly skin. The doc acts happy with his work, telling me to wait to see final results. I'm skeptical that my results will improve, and worried about the seroma becoming permanent. He is treating my concerns as overly critical, but I am totally embarrassed by my tummy. I feel I didnt need a tuck before, I need one now. What rights u have when it comes to expected results?
