EVLT and compression stockings 14 days post op.

thesash
I had EVLT done on 4-18 left leg and 4-21 right leg. Wore 30/40 compression thigh highs for 7 days straight for 24 hours. Then I started wearing the hose during the days. Dr said 3 weeks during the day but said I could stop. already had an ultrasound in both legs and everything is closing fine with no blood clots. Is this okay? If I stop wearing the hose will the veins still go away? I live in Vegas so it's hot as hell here and I would love to stop but want to make sure my outcome is the same.
