1 year after chin liposuction - Could massaging the area have caused loose skin?

camille1990
Hi, My chin lipo was done over a year ago, it healed extremely tight and I loved how it looked, although underneath was tight and visibly lumpy. I decided to massage it 2 weeks ago to see if the bumps would be less noticeable, and used a very firm pressure a few times. Now it seems that the skin underneath/ around the edge has become extremely loose and it doesn’t look as tight anymore. Is it possible to have damaged the results? Or could it be swelling/healing again?
