Hi i had ab lipo about 5 or 6 months ago. The back and flanks is fine but the front of my stomach the skin is soft and mushy. I cant figure out if this is skin or fat? I see some uneveness also. I know its not gonna be 100% perfect but what is going on? Is this normal? My doctor said its good result but i didnt ask about the softness.
