Should I wear a compression garment for my inner thighs?

October 29, 2013
Asked By:P Eye

Many years ago I had lipo done & was advised to wear compression garment. This recent inner thigh lipo the surgeon didn't recommend. I was wrapped in cotton & gauz bandages that I feel are making dents (uneven surface) (not tensor bandage). 1st surgery in Canada 2nd in Cancun. I fear the results will be less than optimal without the compression garment. So far I cannot find one to buy. Any suggestions are welcomed.
