I just had water jet lipo done few days ago and was wondering when I should start massaging the area. My biggest dreads post op are uneven and dimple skin. What should I use for the massage? Can I use olive oil, or should I use lotions? Another thing is regarding compression garments, mine only covers from my torso to my lower abdomen, which seems like all my fluid retention goes to my pelvic area. The marks that compression garments make won't be permanent right?
