You are probably developing a hypertrophic scar which can be treated with steroids. You might have a small stitch abscess. Please discuss this with your surgeon. The rest looks fine.
You would probably do well with liposuction to your upper abdomen and a min tuck. You could see improvements with just liposuction, but you might have more excess lower skin.
