Anything that is worn against the skin and under the compression garment should be very form fitting. You don't want something bunching or wrinkling under the garment. I would ask your surgeon about this and show him/her how it fits. Good luck!
You can use iteither way. I would recommend using it in the manner that is most comfortablefor you and what your surgeon recommends.
Compression is always encouraged after liposuction to reduce swelling, prevent bruising and fluid collections. Compression is compression so I don't believe it matters what you have on under the garment as long as it fits correctly.
You can wear something under your garment as long as it doesn't wrinkle or bunch up. Sometimes this helps at areas like the underarms...if you wear, say an underarmour shirt with sleeves and then put on a compression vest the underarms can be protected from chaffing.As far as panties or briefs are concerned they can be worn over the outside of the garment for hygiene and comfort if you like, as the crotch is cut out of the compression garment.
Your compression garment should be directly on your skin to minimize any irregularities that maybe caused by your undergarments.

Small incisions are needed to do liposuction. Many times this can be put in inconspicuous locations. But any incision will leave a scar. Scars fade with time but everyone heals differently. Your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon should be able to go over scar care with you.
I feel a lot more could have been done with regards to contouring, but it all depends on how much shaping and lifting you truly want. The back, thighs, arms have more fat that can be removed and the hip/waist can be contoured much more. Fat can also be used to reshape the buttock and...
Liposuction and surgical excision are easily done in that area. One additional thing to keep in mind, if you take away too much of the padding over the pubic bones, sex can become very uncomfortable or even painful.
At 6 months, swelling should be gone but numbness could still increase a little bit, I usually recommend to give it up to a year to return to normal.Give it a little bit more time and continue to follow up with your physician.
You follow all of the rules of your surgeon for healing your best. Wound at rest heals best so do not over do. Massage helps after 10 days or so. Eat well, sleep well, and take care of yourself. Take medication prescribed by your doctor. Wounds heal at...
