Large Area Lumps Under Skin After Liposuction? (photo)

October 6, 2013
Asked By:CuteLittleSmiles in Indianapolis, IN

I am 9 days out from breast augmentation, lipo in multiple areas and labiaplasty. My surgeon was very aggressive. I'll be honest and admit that I did NOT wear my compression garment 24/7. When I sit it creases and I'm seeing some indentation in my skin where that happens. My bruising has has faded significantly (using Arnica gel & epsom salt baths). However, I have LARGE tender areas that are very hard under the skin. What do I do to break these up? Would the garment help at this point?
