Compression garments help with liposuction

Francisco Canales, MD answers: Does compression garment after Smart Lipo help?

Do elastic compression stockings after Smart Lipo help at all?

Compression garments help with any type of liposuction. They help with comfort as well as making sure the skin is supported while healing and shrinkage takes place.  How long you wear it is a matter of discussion with your own surgeon, but our patients wear it for about 3-6 weeks depending on the extent and location of the liposuction.
