8 weeks post op Lipo on Abdomen-Lumps and swelling persistent. (photos)

May 9, 2018
Asked By:CiaraM85 in Sanger, California

I had a follow up appointment yesterday and asked my doctor about these two lumps on my stomach . I was thinking they were fluid or scar tissue but he thinks they might be fat he didn’t remove but feel something hard when I push down far on them? What could this be? Plus I’m overall so much bigger than I was 1st week post op! This far shouldn’t I be done swelling? I wore compression and I am massaging as of last week. And nothing is getting better?
