Am I botched? I have a deep line on my lower back after liposuction performed in May (Photo)

Asked By:adoorCee in Los Angeles, CA

After telling my nurse my concerns about the deep dent in my back, she simple said it was a result of swelling and it would go down. However the line hasn't reduced! Is there a specific reason why this dent is there? What could my surgeon have done wrong? What procedure can I do to correct this!
