8weeks post op. Had lipo on flanks, my back, upper and lower stomach and about 3inches down on the top of my butt for contouring. PS said I could stop wearing garment 4weeks ago. How long should I wear the compression garment? Why is this happening? This picture is right after the procedure and I usually stay flat until I stop wearing the garment then the top and lower start getting mushy. Is this normal. I'm 47...that scar was from a surgery in my 20's.
