What is a Good Girdle After Tummy Tuck?

Hello

You are 5 weesk down the track now and I would usually recommend wearing a binder or girdle for upto 6 weeks post op and then wearing what you normally wear.  You can also just remove the metal rods from the garment.  They are usually easily removed by picking out the seam.  Alternatively you can purchase another garment fromt he sports shop called a skin which athletes wear and you can place this under you gym gear.  It holds the tummy quite tight and firm.

Hope this helps

You could consider a product found at Target called Assets. These are mildly compressive and many patients find  them a comfortable alternative when ready to switch from the compression garments.
