Mini

Hello, being your only 4 weeks post-surgery you are still very swollen, I would continue to wear the compression garment 24-7. If in a few months you still feel the same way you need to contact your plastic surgeon. For the hard areas you mentioned you can message to help break down the scar tissue. Make sure you see your surgeon to make sure that it is in fact scar tissue.

The photo posted shows indentations due to liposuction and a poor choice of operations in that a mini TT most likely was not the correct operation. But to be sure post before photos..
