Is it OK to wear a t-shirt underneath the compression garment for more comfort?

December 6, 2016
Asked By:rtruns in Atlanta, GA

I am two weeks post-op from stomach/flank lipo with ab sculpting. I have been wearing my compression garment and corset faithfully but over the last couple of days the compression garment has been itchy and I was wondering if it would have any negative effect to wear a t-shirt between my body and the compression garment,
