I had liposuction of my lower abdomen on January 13th (10.5 weeks ago) Since immediately following surgery, I noticed a dent on the middle left side. While my stomach wasnt perfectly flat before, the skin was always smooth. When I showed my doctor yesterday he acted as if he couldn't see it. I feel that he is being dishonest because he knows he messed up. PLEASE help, any advice is welcome. I know it hasnt been a full 3mo yet, but the area is tender and I definitely feel it will not smooth out.

Traditional liposuction is very limited and only removes a partial amount of fat. I highly recommend a procedure like VASER liposuction. VASER eliminates all fat and removes contour irregularities. Consult with a VASER specialist to address all your questions.
You may have some muscle laxity. I would combine the liposuction with laser and RF tissue tightening to improve results. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianRealself100 Surgeon
