Interested in Lipo of Abdominal, Flanks,and Back - Atlanta, GA or Miami, FL

I have two issues lingering issues. A area on my stomach is raised. IDK if its fluid or what but it hasn't went down.
I also have hard spots on both of my sides one greater then the other.
I keep saying I am going to make time for the massages ,but by me taking of so much time from work lately I just cant squeeze it in. I've also started to work out with a trainer.
So yes my love handles and back fat is gone which takes care of my primary reasons for getting lipo, but I was hoping to be a little more snatched. I pray my sides go in once the hardness and swelling goes away. Yes 8 weeks later I still swell. Not as much as week 2 but enough to know that I need to cut back(diet) or take a load off. I wonder if this swelling issue derives from the fact that I had absolutely no drainage?
All in all I could have kept my money and worked out. But, I doubt I would have so i'm about 78 percent satisfied. Ill post to the forum when I get closer to 100.
Also, I looked better the day after SX then I do now so i'm thinking(hoping & praying) when its all said and done I might go back to what I seen before the swelling kicked in.
I don't want to deter anyone because all of us are fighting different battles. I can only hope that we all know that your experience wont be exactly like mine. Please take this as just a general idea and don't allow it to alter your decisions only to make you more aware.

I feel like a blow fish. The areas where I've had lipo swells up so that I have yet to see any real results. I know that I should have a low sodium diet, drink lots of water, be active but not overly active and when I swell have a seat and elevate my legs. I've been doing all of these things and this morning took a arnica tablet. Last night I got a strong muscle tearing sensation in my side. Ughhh that's a ugly feeling. I've also had the tingling sensation which aren't painful but feel weird. Only 12 days out I know I must continue to be patient but my fingers are crossed that swelling is at a minimum for my trip at the end of May. My belly button smells awful. A clunk of gunk fell out last night because I slept w/o a garment. I was able to clean it and put some ointment on it. Hopefully that helps with the odor. It sucks to smell yourself and not be able to do much about it. I've switched from the garment that I was given post op and now I am wearing a full body spank with the lipo foam inside. I think I'm gonna have to put my waist shaper on top for more compression. I was trying to wait until all the feeling came back but I think more compression would help with the swelling. The CG that I was given isn't as effective because I have a short torso and the zippers bunch up and dig into my skin because it was made for someone with a longer torso. No new pics because not much has changed since the last ones.

I had my f/u appointment yesterday. I flew down and flew back. I must say I was very tired upon return. They said everything looked good. I had almost 3 liters of fat removed. The difference is only minor due to all the swelling so I'm still waiting to see the final results. But so far so good. I still can't run, but I'm getting around fine and my incisions are healing up well. Dr Miami said don't touch my belly button.(that's gonna be hard) but explained that the stitches will disolve on there own and if I were to pick at it I could pull out the stitches. He says the goo will eventually fall out. Ughhh. I have tendencies to pick at things so this is going to be a task.
