Are burns from garment after liposuction normal? (Photos)

Cranberry1101
I received lipo of the abs and flanks on 11/1/17. I am experiencing burns from my garment that are now peeling, exposing pink flesh. My physician has advised me to continue to wear my garment. This doesnt appear to be the best route seeing as though these are burns. Any suggestions?
