I had a posterior body lift for loose skin about 6 months ago, and the scars are uneven, what can be done?

I had a posterior body lift for loose skin about 6 months ago. The scar on the right side is in the correct position, but the left is too high. In addition, I now have loose skin, although not as much, but it is clearly too much. In front of the mirror, and in panties, as well as all bathing suits, the left side incision scar is too high. I am 5'6" and 130 lbs. My inner and outer thighs remain very loose also. I went into the surgery at 134lbs. My buttocks remains low, and too flat.
