I just had lipo on my flanks, abdomen and bra line along with a breast lift and revision. I'm 3 days post op and my zip up sports bra and the top of my spans are cutting into me at my bra line. Should I give them a little cut. It is super uncomfortable.

Answer: Compression After Surgery Please have your physician assess the area, you may need a different compression or a better one. It is normal to have pain and swelling after surgery. Try lymphatic massage and hyperbaric oxygen to speed up the improvement. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Garment Too Tight After Surgery At times when the garment is sized it may look like it fits but with the swelling they sometimes become too tight. If it starts cutting into you then you definitely have a problem.I would recommend calling your doctors office and see what they would recommend. They may want you to come into the office to re-size or perhaps put some cuts in the band to help.Good luck.
