I had a full TT w/ lipo of flanks, back n waist 8wks ago but my stomach isn't as flat as I thought it would be & at 8wks I'm getting kind of anxious.I do have seroma n I've been getting aspirated and wearing my compression garment all day/night but my belly/back still looks big,I can't tell if my bck is swollen or if this is my new look.I want to know if taping my stomach on top of my faja give the pressure needed to create better results flattening my midsection or is this just wasted effort?
