“After 2 kids and breastfeeding - had liposuction, butt lift and breast augmentation”

Liposuction: Worth it

Cost: $13,000
Pain: Severe
Liposuction satisfaction: Good3 Star Rating: Good
I recommend my Liposuction provider: Name not provided
Why: Doctor is nice and easy to talk to. Staff are great.
Seeking help:

Had liposuction, butt lift and breast augmentation on Oct 1st and has been wearing compression garment since then. Now developed heat rash on abdomen. Can I stop wearing the compression garment for a while and resume later when rash improved? Will the final result of surgery be worst if not wearing the garment continuously? Thank you -- Updated on Oct 29, 2009: Heat rash after wearing compression garment for 1 month. Can I stop and wait for the rash to resolve then wear the garment again? Will the end result (shaping) be different?
Review of Liposuction:

Pros: full breast and butt

Cons: painful

After 2 kids and breastfeeding, my small breast is even smaller. Breast augmentation gives me a fuller breast and liposuction to help the excess abdominal fat. Of course, the re-cycle fat to have a rounder buttock.

I had liposuction, butt lift and breast augmentation one month agao so I can have a fuller breast and buttock with a small waist line. Everything is going well until intense
itching with rash started on my abdomen. Will the swelling
and shaping of the boby continue without the compression
garment? Will it be ok to wear the compression garment after
the rash resolved and still have the same end result?

I would wear it if I were you. I wore mine for about 15 weeks. I wanted to get the most optimum results. But maybe you should take it off for a few hours at a time when you are at home, let the air get to it. Make sure you are totally dry after a shower before putting it back on. Apply aloe too, it should help heal things up.

I wanted stop wearing it after I had my lipo because I was so sore. Thank God I didn't it will really mess up the results. See your doctor and make sure you keep wearing it in the meantime.
