Is this bulge normal 3 months after diep flap? (Photo)

This bulge is making me upset as I expected to have a flat belly after diep flap. At my 6 week postop the surgeon said it's swelling. Now I am 3 months out. Can the bulge be fixed? On the left side they did muscle sparing and put mesh. That side is flat.
