After liposuction on my arms my left arm drained a lot more than my right arm. Now after almost two months and consistently wearing compression sleeves I can see my left arm thinner and more loose skin than my right arm. Is it possible my right arm didn’t drain enough and still has liquid? Will both arms stay uneven and are compression sleeves still need to be worn??
