I had lipo on my waist and abdomen last September. I noticed right away that the left side looked less defined then the right side but was told to give it time and that it was because of bruising and swelling when I raised my concern. I did have a lot more blue bruises on my left so I dis not worry about it too much. However, the more time passes, the more apparent it gets. Is the difference due to swelling/bruising and will it get even or is this the result I am stuck with?
