How can I remove hard spots after lower abdomen liposuction?

Asked By:tblair717 in Atlanta, GA

2 weeks ago I had lipo on my lower abdomen. The Garment that I was put in was fairly loose but I thought that this was because of all of the soreness and bruising. At my 1st week post-op appt I explain to my doctor that I felt hard spots around my Naval area and swelling on the sides. He told me that this was normal and to just massage it. I have been massaging it to no avail. I also went to get a lymphatic massage and ultrasonic cavitation and the spots are still hard.
