Standards for Wearing Compression Garments After Liposuction?

I usually recommend patients to wear compression garments for 6 weeks post liposuction. This helps reduce swelling and maintain shape. It is very important to keep the area's that have been liposuctioned compressed as much as possible. Best of luck in your recovery.

Every surgeon is different with their post op directions to their patients so I would follow your surgeon's direction for after surgery. I normally recommend that the compression garment is worn for 4 weeks after liposuction surgery and it may depend on exactly what areas were treated.

Please make sure that you are consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with this type of procedure and follow his/her directions for post op care.
