Compression Garment Needed

I recommend the compression garment to all of my patients for 4 weeks. All day for the first week. After that it is only necessary to wear it at night. This helps the skin tighten as much as possible. Some people are not a good candidate for this procedure due to skin laxity. In these cases the skin does not tighten once the fat is removed.
