BBL discolored soft lump on left buttock - Miami, FL

I had a BBL performed on September 16 2016 and soon after surgery while in the recovery house I noticed a lump on my left buttock but I did not pay much attention to it because obviously I just finished surgery and was very swollen. Fast forward 1 month and a half later and a lot of the swelling has subsided but the lump remains on a discolered (white) patch and actually looks bigger because of the reduced swelling and a lot more noticeable. It is soft and mushy to the touch. At times I get a sharp stabbing pain and warm burning sensation from the lump. If anyone else has experienced this same lump please let me know and what was the outcome. I have researched all the possible diagnosis of the lump including fat necrosis, the possibility of a cyst and or accumulated fat in that area but none of the photos I've seen look like the lump I have. I am posting a few pics and hope to get your opinion on what this may be.

What did yur surgeon say?
Haven't seen him yet. I sent him pics and a message. Waiting for a response. I'm am not located in the same state.
Ohh wow. U might have to fly back to see him about it if hes not responding bcus u dont want it to be an imfection or atleast go to your local primary doctor and ask about it or hospital u shudnt even have waited a whole month without asking a dr about it . It looks like you got butt implants and it went wrong.

Let us know what you find out, I'd definitely talk to your surgeon about it.

As soon as I seen this I thought, I hope she didn't go to vanity. Which surgeon did you go to?
I haven't spoken to the PS yet (waiting for a call or email) so I will refrain from naming them, until I have more information. But it was not Vanity.
Which vanity? As I am in talks with them to do a revision. As I have the same issue as this lady .
What is it like now? Hope it has healed properly
I think it’s wrong that you didn’t mention which facility or physician did your surgery. I thought this site was to help others out?
