I had lipo on flanks, lower back and inner/outer thighs 9 days ago and slipped into a large garment immediately after surgery. I am 9 days post op and although I feel the garment on, i am wearing soft pajama pants underneath the garment for comfort but still I can wear a WHOLE PAJAMA pant under the garment (the compression material is giving me a rash). Can I transition sooner than advised if I need more support?
