I am 1 week post abdominal and flank liposuction and breast augmentation, and my doctor transitioned me to Spanx a day after the surgery. I bought a body suit that snaps at the crotch and has shoulder straps, as pulling up and down Spanx was painful with my BA. The seams of the body suit leave marks on my abs. Will this cause permanent marks? Should I switch to Spanx with no seams?
