Is it normal to have wavy lumpy saggy thighs 5 weeks after liposuction? (Photo)

kms2401
I had a tummy tuck and lipo on my thighs 5 weeks ago. Before surgery I told the doctor I was having second thoughts about doing the lipo because of the reviews I read saying if your over 40 you could be left with sagging skin. The doctor told me I should be fine. I'm 45. Well 5 weeks later my legs look worse than they did before lipo. Will my legs get better in time? Will the sagging and wavy go away??
