Why do I have a shelf/bulge/roll after TT with MR? 4 mo P.O., it seems to be getting larger with time? (Photos)

I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair on October 11. I had an extreme amount of loose skin. Even though my scar was higher than I would have liked and I had a small vertical incision as wellI was I flat right out of surgery. As time has gone on this bulge seems to be getting larger. It also has a butt shape. What could be the causes? How do I fix this? Feeling very disappointed in my results.
