Prominent mons pubis 6-1/2 months after Abdominoplasty. It's the same as it was at 6 weeks. Can it still be swelling? (photos)

Asked By:JSRS in Minnesota, MN

Abdominoplasty with MR and lipo performed 5/6/16. Great results and easy recovery. Swelling of mons went down a bit over the first 6 weeks, but then no improvement. I wore Spanx every day and my compression wrap every night for 3 months, then gave up. Some days I swear it's getting worse. Swimsuits, tight skirts and leggings look terrible--like I have a penis. My weight has remained stable. PS says he did "some" liposuction of mons during surgery. Could he do more? I am 55 yo, 5'2", 125#.
