I underwent liposuction about 9 months and revision 5 months ago, a week after the surgery I started to develop a seroma above my belly button . So my doc drained several times. Finally after a couple weeks it stops drain but the seroma started looking like a sac of fat. I went to revision the fat was removed same in other areas. After 10 months my belly is uneven, bumpy I've been good about wearing my compression garment and doing massages. What do you recommend to fix this problem. Any advice?
