I’m 5ft5, 125lbs, 40yrs old. I’m keen to get the surgery done in early Jan but have a trip planned in mid-Feb. I don’t want to be stuck at an all inclusive resort in compression gear 24 7. I’m open to wearing compression gear at night but would love to wear a bikini during the day. I’m thin and healthy but don’t want to wreck my vacation being in pain and still in major recovery mode. I will be traveling with my husband and 2 kids (ages 7 and 10). One PS thinks I will be fine .
