I'm just wondering how long I should wear the compression wrap for. My doctor recommended 2-3 days I've worn it for about 3-4. Is it needed for my recovery? I only had the glands removed lipo was not needed. They were removed on both sides.
Answer: Compression Garment Thank you for your question.After your #gynecomastia #surgery, you will be required to wear a #compression #garment after surgery for the next few weeks. The extra pressure this garment provides helps reduce swelling and discomfort. You should not remove this garment at all until the second or third day after surgery. After that, feel free to remove the garment temporarily for showering or laundering. We want you to have circumferential pressure for 4-6 weeks, but you may switch to an exercise compression garment when advised.Ask your #BoardCertified #PlasticSurgeon what they recommend.

Answer: I just had male gyno surgery. My doctor told me to wear the compression wrap for 3 days then I could remove it. Is this normal? Best advice is to follow your doctor's suggested protocol. I usually suggest the garment worn for two weeks and removal for showering.

Answer: Compression wear Hello,Thank you for your question. If your procedure was relatively minor with no liposuction, your Plastic Surgeon may feel that you have minimal risk of fluid accumulation and will have minor swelling. Plastic Surgeons have different preferences for compression wear and sometimes decide this on a case by case basis. If you note changes such as increased swelling or fluid accumulation, let your Plastic Surgeon know right away.All the best

Answer: Compression Garment Routine After Gynecomastia Rx Compression garment recommendations varies from surgeon to surgeon. It is not clear if they will make a difference in the final outcome though may shorten this time period. In general you should always follow your surgeon's recommendations. #malebreastreduction#gynecomastia

Answer: I just had male gyno surgery. My doctor told me to wear the compression wrap for 3 days then I could remove it. Is this normal? Thank you for your question and congratulations on your gynecomastia surgery. If you had relatively little glandular development, direct excision and a few days of compression garment use may be sufficient for your recovery. Be sure to maintain close follow-up appointments to ensure uneventful healling
