Hello. I am one year post 360 lipo and tummy tuck. I am unhappy with my results because I still have lower abdominal swelling. I can wear my waist trainer or compression garment all day and my stomach will get flat. If I leave it off for a few hours the bulge is right back. I am 31 years old, 185 pounds, 5’5”. I really don’t want to go back under the knife so I am trying to research. Would kybella or coolsculpting help?
