Thank you for your question! No, it is not necessary to wear your compression garment at 7 months post op. For my patients, I recommend they wear their compression garments for the first 3 weeks, 24/7, then an additional 3 weeks at night only. I also recommend discussing specific post op instructions with your plastic surgeon. Best of luck!

Swelling can persist for 6 months and sometimes up to 1 year following liposuction. Follow up with the PS who performed your liposuction if you continue to be concerned.
