There are no rules with compressive wear after a BBL. I do think that more compression is better than less. Be careful with garments so they don’t create creasing in the abdominal skin as you sit. These creases can become permanent. I like to have my patients wear a belly board for 6-8 weeks and lymphatic massage definitely helps move out the swelling and fluid quickly.
