Providing support or compression? I'm asking the question because my current one (sports bra) is a bit too tight on me, and I'm worried about the blood circulation of my new breasts. It becomes really uncomfortable when sleeping. Would it be ok if I just use one that is loose enough to provide support only, but not compression? Thank you!

Instructions post fat inejctions should be discussed with your doctor. At three weeks, I do not see why you can not have caffeine. I have not seen any papers in the literature suggesting this is a problem. But again, always best to speak with your surgeon.
It is common to have point tenderness if sutures were used to secure to the chest wall. It is unlikely that "wire" sutures were used. Communication and appropriate follow up with your plastic surgeon is advised as they know the most about the specifics of your surgery.
Let's begin with the picture that shows both breasts. Overall, I think you have a great opportunity for a very nice result. The open wound that you show and describe seem to be superficial and it is my opinion that with proper wound care it will go on to heal well over time....
