I had a tummy tuck and lipo of the flanks October 2021. Every post op i expressed concerns of "bulkiness" at the end of the incisions on each side. I was told repeatedly that it was just swelling and to give it time. 2 years post op, still the same issue my a flap of skin hangs over the incision. My surgeon is telling me I need a "hip flip" ($3k) What should I do? I just want to be comfortable in my own skin!
