Compression Garment Needed
I recommend the compression garment to all of my patients for 4 weeks. All day for the first week. After that it is only necessary to wear it at night. This helps the skin tighten as much as possible. Some people are not a good candidate for this procedure due to skin laxity. In these cases the skin does not tighten once the fat is removed.

Wrinkles and adhesions. Not the same thing.
Liposuction beneath the neck does not cure neck wrinkles. They might have been temporarily improved by swelling. An adhesion: abnormal attachment of the skin to the muscle is something else entirely. See you doctor to be sure that isn't what it is. Admit your non-complicance with the garment to him/her.

Jawline/neck liposuction wrinkles improve over 4 month time.
I have patients wear the head wrap for 24 hr then just at night for the next month. It takes 4 months to see the end result so be patient and expect wrinkles during that time.
