Did I ruin my results after lipo by not wearing the proper compression garment for two days? I only wore Spanx.

I had a proper compression garment after doing lipo on my upper and lower abdomen and flanks but it started digging into my skin and making dents. It also really hurt me. So for two days I wore Spanx while waiting for another one to come in the mail. I’m only a week into recovery. Did I ruin my results or put myself at risk for fibrosis? I’m really nervous!
