Clothing to wear after abdominal liposuction?

LanaD.Jun 2, 2016
Evening. I'm getting abdominal liposuction in a week and I was wondering what kind of clothes I should wear. I figured that leggings would be okay, and dresses? One week after the operation I'm going to my graduation party, and thought that a shift dress would work well in order to hide the compression garment. Any other tips in regards to clothing and how I can hide the garment ? Im keeping this operation entirely secret. Thank you for your help.

I find lymphatic massage is best and a soft roller can be used 2-3 weeks after treatment.  Please speak to your physician about their own protocols.  Best, Dr. Emer.

I find that full body contouring with the tummy tuck is needed to really reshape the hips/buttock/stomach. I suggest you see an expert in HI DEF body shaping.  Best, Dr. Emer.

It is totally normal to have firmness and lumpiness early after liposuction.Massage, warm compresses, later down the line radio frequency or ultrasound treatments may all help.
