Is this a seroma? Psudobursa? Help (Photo)

Asked By:Exuberant253832 in England, United Kingdom

I had a mommy makeover in April 2023, initially very happy with my results. I went abroad for surgery (yes I know stupid decision) so there is no after care really. At about 3 months post op I noticed a “pouch” and it was noticeable through clothing so I sent pictures to the clinic and they said it was swelling that would go down so I left it. It’s gotten worse and just doesn’t seem to be going. Any advice appreciated
