Mons pubis itching 7 months after abdominoplasty (Photo)

I have noticeable slight swelling in incision & mons pubis area. I have intense itchy outbreaks that require anti itch medication. I don't know if this is normal healing or not. My surgeon recently assured me that this should resolve in 12-18 months. He insists that compression garments will help which I've worn consistently since ny procedues. Also, do I have "dog ears?" Thank you for your answers
