I am unsure when to start wearing this and when after my tummy tuck and liposuction.
Answer: Compression after liposuction Liposuction is the most powerful way to sculpt and change your body but the faja and the foam pads and the table are all very important parts of the recovery and are especially important for the first two months so I would encourage you to wear them around the clock for the first 2 months and then re-assess. A lot of times we stop the table at 2 months but continue the faja for a total of 3 months after surgery.Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Plastic Surgery Member, Florida Medical Association

Answer: Post up Use of Garment after a Tummy Tuck. Thank you for your questions. Post up garments should be worn right after surgery. Garments, including foam and abdominal boards are very important in compressing down swelling in your post up recovery. I also advise you to contact your surgeon to help you better understand any questions and concerns you have during your recovery. Best of luck to you

Answer: Do you wear the abdominal board and lipo foam to sleep at night under my compression garment? Hi. THis is part of our protocol. I feel that the longer you wear the foam pads and abdominal board the greater the chances of that skin re-draping. Good luckDr PG

Answer: Post Tummy Tuck Compression Garment Hello,Thank you for your question. Usually, foam padding- if in addition to your compression garment-will be worn for the first 3-7 days. Each surgeon has their own protocol for binders and garments after surgery however so I recommend that you ask them directly what is advised for you.Take care
