Do I have a Seroma? Lower abdomen never flattened out after liposuction (Photo)

Asked By:Witty65263 in Scotland, United Kingdom

I had liposuction in South Korea 10 months ago, and the day after the procedure I returned to the surgeon to have my surgery area (abdomen, flanks and back) squeezed. They didn’t give me drains after the surgery and instead pushed/massaged the fluid out of the wounds the next day. since then I had a strange shape to my abdomen where they had pushed the fluid down and it didn’t all get squeezed out. I was so hoping for a flat stomach, I am so disheartened.
