Asked By:Bveach in Phoenix, AZ

I had liposuction on my upper arms 3 wees ago. I noticed a huge indent on my arms took a picture and texted it to my doctor. He told me to remove the ace bandage immediately. I did I am wearing compression garments now but still have these horrible indents. Will they go away? My lipo wasbfor de-bulking so I can have an arm lift later. However, I prefer not to have these indents.
