Will that garment fit under a suit??
I haven't even had my surgery & I am already wondering about returning to work. I'm having a TT (with lipo) arms & BA.
I plan on taking 5 weeks off. When I return to work - I will need to be in high heels & business suits. Will that compression garment fit under a suit??
What about the arms - will that garment fit in a suit jacket?
I read that we are suppose to wear the garments for 6 weeks - maybe I should just take 6 weeks off - then go back to work without the garments.
What have you all done?
Thanks!

Keep in mind, though, that you may have swelling that makes your clothes fit differently for a while.
Thanks Charming. I'm thinking I may have to wear my "larger" suits the first week back to work.
I know everyone at work will be exe[cting this fabulous body - and they may not see it for a whilte.
Then I plan on going shopping for some nice new clothes!!
If I take 6 weeks off - can I go without the garments during the day - and just wear a 2nd stage thing?
For the arms - do you have to wear them for 6 weeks as well?
I can't believe you are 5 weeks out already!!
Struggling into nylons & a suit this monring I was thinking that it is going to be an Olympic event when I go back to work!!
Maybe I should just take the full 6 weeks off - then I won't have to worry about the binders & just wear 2nd stage stuff.
How are the new boobs doing?

I dress for work also and all my dress pants and suits have fit just fine with my garment on, even with swelling. They actually are a lot smoother...imagine wearing a girdle from neck to knees...it smooths everything out! Ha ha!
The only issue I have heard people talk about (I luckily don't have this issue) is the 'girly' area...since there's a hole in it from front to back, sometimes you are squishing out that area, and some people say you can see it through your clothes!
