Crease above belly button after liposuction in the tummy and hips/flanks, what is going on here?

November 1, 2013
Asked By:userblahblah in south dakota

It has been two weeks since my surgery, which, I realize is not enough time to see full results. But, there was a crease above my belly from day 1. My doctor advised me to massage in circular motions, which I have been doing. What is going on here? Is this going to be permanent? It looks awful. Please help!!
