Specialized compression garments after fat grafting

This is one of our most popular surgeries here in our Miami practice. We strongly feel that the right compression garment is essential to creating a beautiful result after the surgery.

Were you happy with the before and after photos you saw before surgery?

Plastic Surgeons all have different ways of doing things. If you saw before and after photos of patients of the Plastic Surgeon you chose, and you were happy with the results that you saw, then I would trust your surgeons recommendations. Obviously, his techniques work for him.

Compression

You should use what your surgeon wants you to use. Your surgeon  has a way of doing things and the way that you wear compression garments should be in accord with him/her. I use tight garments that do cover the buttocks because that helps to reduce the swelling, the shape and the recovery.
