Extremely distended 3 months post-op TT and lipo. What happened and do I need a revision? (Photos)

TUMMYTUCKSTILLBIG
Thank you for your time. I am 3 months out post abdominoplasty and liposuction and I never really had a flat stomach after the surgery. My stomach is flat when I lay down, but I am wondering if I even had my diastasis recti repaired? I never felt "hunched over" after surgery and I never felt like I tore any stitches. I've had a lymphatic massage which softened the area but I am no flatter. I previously had lap band surgery but the surgeon was aware. Does this look like a revision is required?
