Choosing a compression garment... if too tight stitches would open, too loose won't work

January 11, 2015
Asked By:Primavera in Buenos Aires

I'll have lipo/brachi next month, and got an arm compression garment wich is firm and tight. But I guess it would be very difficult to wear after the surgery, I'm afraid my arms would be more swollen and when trying to put on my garment, stitches could open up. Shoud I change them for a bigger size, even if that size won't make the job of pressing the lipo/brachi area?
