I had liposuction on my muffin top and abdomen but emphasis on the muffin top to round out my hips. My left hip is nice and smooth and round but my right hip has developed a different look like the muffin too has come back. I’m a month out from surgery. I went to my surgeon and he says it’s swelling and “should” go down but it doesn’t feel or looks like swelling to me. It’s puffy, soft and does not hurt when I touch it, I apply extra compression with foams but it does absolutely nothing. Help!

Liposuction will make things worse. You could consider Sculptra filler to help fill in the gap or even fat if you have any left. A tummy tuck will tighten the skin and bringing the muscles together could improve that area, but not remove it.
Sculptra injections can be used to help fill in the dents. This will require multiple sessions and at least 6 weeks between each session. Please discuss this with your plastic surgeon.
