No compression vest?

[qwertygynopoop]

I've just had my gynecomastia surgery done in Poland, it was done through the technique where you cut a half circle on the nipple and take the gyno out.
However, I have not received my compression vest as the doctor said its quite hot so it might not be needed and he will check today when he takes out the leak tube, however he never did that and a nurse did it instead. I only have a pad on it with tape holding it in place, I have to come back in 3 days to get stiches out etc.
Is it normal not to get a vest? Should I buy one anyway or listen to my surgeon?

(I'm 16 and had gyno only on my right side)

I only had compression bandages the first 4 days.  He removed them and then I had no compression vest.  I m on 31 days and it looks great.
