Hi, I had a gynecomastia surgery (excision and liposuction) and also Vaser lipo from the waist (love handles). Since then I have been wearing compression garments. Initially they felt good but after 2 weeks of recovery, sometimes it feels better without them (couple of hours). I will be flying for 8 hours, layover for 4 hours and then another flight of 7 hours. I plan to drink lot of water and ambulate. If compression gets too uncomfortable then is it okay to remove them for the flight? Thanks
