What treatments would be helpful? (Photos)

lcbils
I understand I am not "fat" but I have always had my problem areas, mostly saddlebags and flank area. I had smart lipo in May of 2016 to my thighs and flanks. However, I have seen NO difference whatsoever. I thought it may be swelling but it has been more than a year. My diet is the same, and I'm working out more than before. I don't drink alcohol. I don't know if I am seeing skin laxity or fat. I would love to lose inches in these areas but don't know what treatment to utilize! Please help!
