Hello and thank you for your time! I had abdominal, waist and hip liposuction 4 days ago. I realize final results take time, but I can't tell if the feshiness I feel on my stomach is due to swelling or residual fat. If swollen, would the skin feel hard or soft? Does everyone experience swelling? And relatedly, the lower abdomen above the pubic area is a bit saggy, is there a chance that this will firm up over time? I am 49 years old and did not have an "apron" of fat originally. Thanks!
