What is the best corset I should use after a BBL? (Photo)

Question

The dr I'm going to provided me with a post op that included the use of a corset. I can't find any on the net that he advised me to wear. Please help! He would like me to wear a corset that ties or has multiple clips so that when swelling goes down, I can tighten it. He also mentioned that the corset should not get in the way of the upper butt/hip area. So I'm guessing it should be relatively short? Please help!

Thank you for your question. I am slightly confused by what you report. I know of no post-op protocols that require patients to wear a corset after a BBL. I am somewhat suspicious if your "dr" send you pictures of one and recommended that you get one. I would first check to make sure your doctor is a board certified (ASPS) plastic surgeon and that you are not getting into an unsafe situation. The only reason I can think of for a patient to wear a corset is to make the BBL area appear larger by comparison, thus helping to give the appearance of a better result than is actually delivered. After a BBL, there are multiple companies that make special compression garments to optomize results. I suggest you discuss those garments with a board certified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps!

Corset has nothing to do with your BBL; compressing your torso with corsets depicted is not medically recommended as you are just squeezing your internal organs.
