Compression garments - how long should it be worn after AirSculpt?

Post-procedure guidelines for wearing compression garments after AirSculpt or similar body contouring procedures can vary based on the specific recommendations of your surgeon. It's important to follow their advice for optimal results and recovery. Generally, wearing a compression garment is crucial in the initial recovery phase to help reduce swelling, support the tissues, and improve contouring.

Typically, patients are advised to wear the compression garment continuously (24 hours a day) for the first two weeks, only removing it for short periods, such as showering. After the initial two weeks, the duration and frequency of wearing the garment can vary. Some surgeons may recommend continuing to wear it for an additional few weeks, but possibly for shorter periods each day, such as 12 hours a day, or only during the day or night.

For specific guidance tailored to your situation, it's best to consult with your surgeon, as they can provide recommendations based on your individual healing process and the specifics of your procedure.

The recommendations are to wear compression garments for two weeks.
You can wear them longer if you find it helpful but you don’t need to. It’s OK to take off the compression garments intermittently, especially when taking a shower during the first two weeks.
The recommendation is to not remove the compression garment for the first 48 hours.
I think the postoperative instructions are fairly straightforward.
The recovery, including postoperative care is relatively easy and short after this procedure.
If you’ve had the procedure then follow up with the clinic and get their input.
