Usually seroma formation is associated with laser assisted or ultrasonically assisted liposuction. This thermal damage can create a sizable amount of tissue injury they can create hard lumps lasting for months or longer.

The slight prominence of the Mons area is easily treated with liposuction. This can be done with local anesthesia alone. I personally don't have any significant restrictions on the patient's postoperatively. Obviously the area will be sore for a week or so

One liter is equivalent to one kilogram which is equal to 2.2 pounds.  However, liposuction aspirate volume does not convert directly to pounds.  This is because liposuction aspirate is not purely fat.  At best its 90% fat and it can be as low as 50% fat.  The rest is made up...

From the photograph provided it's impossible to comment specifically. If there is redundant skin that is gathering up along the crease the only treatment would be surgical excision. Physical examination would be required to establish the diagnosis.

I suggest speaking to your physician or getting a GI doctor to look at you for an evaluation to ensure there is no reflux or fungal issue due to antibiotic use. The liposuction it self cannot cause this.  Best, Dr. Emer.
