Indentations from Compression Garment.

Regardless of what type of liposuction is used, compression garments are often recommended and there may be a skin crease created by a fold or edge of the garment. This is usually spontaneously reversible.

It is normal to see indentations in areas where Smartlipo was performed.  These will probably be visible until the swelling goes down (might take up to 4 weeks before the lines actually disappear).  You might also make sure your garment is not too tight which will just worsen the problem

Indentations from the garment may be maginified by the swelling. This should get better over time. Sometimes massage helps.

In my experience compression garments are not necessary after smartlipo. Theoretically they can slow healing by reducing blood supply and they can cause indentations which almost always disappear with time. Some cosmetic surgeons in Latin America abandoned compression garments more than 20 years ago and I have not used them in the past 20 years. Cotton elastic light garments like Spanx and Underarmour keep tissue warm and seem to speed healing.
