Is it really necessary to have different compression garments for different stages of your recovery, or will one do? I'm reading that the stage 2 garment compresses more.
Answer: Best Compression Garments For Liposuction There is no best garments after liposuction but there are different companies that product quality garments or tailors who produce custom garments. Some of my favorites are Marena (entire line), Dale (first stage abdominal binder), Medical Z (after liposuction), Design Veronique (entire line), and BellaDeena (second stage, long term). The above are all superior quality, but must be used properly to help -- which is to decrease swelling after the procedure and to compress the skin to the new contours without creating irregularities. I have all my patients use 2 stages , they decrease after 3-4 days to much tighter compressions. This is very important for those with hi definition or lipedema procedures! Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Liposuction garments Liposuction garments help with smoothing the contour after liposuction and limiting swelling. Typically stage 2 garments can provide some support after the tighter surgical garments are no longer necessary; maybe at 2 or 3 weeks.

Answer: Is it necessary to have different compression garments after liposuction, during stage 1 and stage 2? Thank you for your question. Compression garments help reduce the swelling after surgery, but in Atlanta heat and humidity these garments can be intolerable. Each surgeon will have their preferred post operative dressings, but typically after four weeks patients can transition to a thinner, more comfortable compression garment, if they choose. The different compression garments will not affect your long term result, so if you prefer, stick to only using one. Hope that this helps.

Answer: Compression garments after liposuction I have my patients wear a garment for a total of six weeks after liposuction. After the first three weeks post-op, I usually allow patients to get into a more comfortable garment instead of the big girdle they had been wearing. This allows them to feel more comfortable in something a little less restrictive and wear a wider range of clothing. Although these are my post-op instructions, I would recommend following the specific instructions your surgeon has given you.
