It's been a while since your procedure. Based on the photos, the contour appears irregular, but it seems you're flexing in those photos, which will make things look funny especially this early on.  I recommend massage and compression (4 to 6 weeks) after surgery, and I would expect things to look different by now, so perhaps posting some photos would be helpful.  Check with your surgeon regarding scar management.
