forgot to ask my surgeon yesterday, brachio vets weigh in!
My doctor said after the incisions are healed!
BUT I really don't need it. I no longer have arm pit hair and if I forget my deodorant, like I did the other day when I went to the gym! I forgot to pack it in my backpack! It really didn't matter, I don't have to worry about any underarm odor. Nothing, nada! Strange, huh?

Me, neither, Dee. 90% of the time I usually forget because I no longer sweat there.

I had my surgery on the 11th. I asked my Dr. on the 19th. He told me I may not need it that most of my sweat glands and hair growing skin is gone! He said that If I feel like using it that I can start using it when my tape comes off which was on the 23rd. I guess I blew money last year on laser hair removal LOL One thing is odd is that I did not have any compression garments on my arms. He only went about 4 inches on my arm. Most of the skin was on my side.
