Why does my stomach appear lumpy, uneven, and hard after undergoing liposuction?

It's been two weeks since my liposuction procedure, and I've noticed that my stomach's appearance is deteriorating rather than improving. I did consult my plastic surgeon, and they assured me that these issues would resolve over time. However, I'm growing concerned as it seems to be getting worse. I didn't wear a compression garment because it wasn't recommended by my surgeon. Is this situation normal? My stomach looked great during the first week, but now, in the second week, it looks quite unsightly to me. I understand that recovery takes time, but I haven't seen any positive outcomes from people who experienced lumpiness and unevenness after liposuction.

Thank you for your question and photos, With two weeks post surgery you still do not see the results of the surgery, you should wait at least 6 months to realize the results. For the moment what I can recommend is that you attend lymphatic drainage massages and wear compression garments. Good luck.

I weigh over 500 pounds, but a significant portion of that weight is due to excess skin. I am not interested in undergoing gastric bypass surgery. If I can have a substantial amount of the excess skin removed, can you assist me with my weight loss goals?

Additionally, what's the recommended timeline for starting carboxytherapy following liposuction? I'm planning to undergo belly liposuction, along with fat transfer to my buttocks and breasts. Simultaneously, I'd like to have a minor rhinoplasty procedure, specifically for addressing flared nostrils
