Asked By:cutiepie0816 in Cleveland, Ohio

On January 19, 2020, I had upper and lower abdominal liposuction. I have been wearing my compression garment religious since the surgery. I still have massive swelling after 30 min to a hour of having it off. It was especially bad in the upper abdominal area. I had to have a medically necessary surgery on April 4 2022 with a plastic Surgeon and had him do a revision on the upper abdominal area where it was missive swelling. Its a small area, I'm tired of wearing compression, please help!
