Doctor gave me a garment that it was only covering my abdomen which i wore for 2 weeks and it was very uncomfortable and sometimes it gave me a horrible back pain. I bought a 1 piece surgical garment recommended by my doctor but it is also very uncomfortable, and I only wore it one week, I am not swollen anymore, Can I switch to Spanxs? Does it really change the final result for my lipo and my buttocks?

Answer: BBL Garments Thank you for your question! For my patients, I recommend that they wear the special BBL garment that we provide after surgery for 3 weeks 24/7, followed by 3 weeks at night only. The garments we provide give patients the right amount of compression to the core area and are made of a specific material over the buttocks portion to help maintain the patient’s beautiful shape and results. I recommend discussing specific postoperative protocol and garments with your plastic surgeon. I hope this helps!

Answer: I'm 3 weeks post lipo and BBL. I am tired of my garment. Can I switch to Spanx? Thank you for your question. Best is to check with your specific surgeon and every surgeon will have his/her own preferences as to recovery for specific procedures. I have my patients wear a compression garment (faja) 24/7 except to shower for 4 weeks post op. This helps ontrol swelling as the compression on your tissues helps your body to reabsorb the edema fluid that accumulates in the tissues after any procedure. This can take quite some time to happen without help from the compression garments. It also helps improve contour. Compression helps to keep the tissues adherent to the underlying structures while healing, this can help prevent the wrinkled skin appearance that can happen when the tissues heal in ways we don't want them to.
