9 months post-op tummy tuck and not happy with results - advice? (photos)

Peaceful984030
I had an FDL tummy tuck in December 2021. I’m almost 9 months post op and I am not happy with my results. 10lbs of skin was removed so most of the skin is gone and my doctor said lipo was not necessary but I feel like he should have done lipo. I feel like a box and I paid ALOT of money for this tummy tuck and the results are not satisfying at all. I don’t have shape and I feel there is extra skin especially when I sit down.
