I would follow your surgeon's specific recommendations about the stockings. I generally tell my patients to keep wearing them until they become mobile. Hope this helps,Dr. JSB
I suggest wearing them as long as they can until it becomes uncomfortable while walking. This is for several days at least.
Hello,Your Plastic Surgeon will have their own preferred protocol for this and take into account your individual health history, age, etc. Generally the compression stockings are most useful while a patient has limited mobility. When you are up walking around frequently your surgeon will likely discontinue.All the best!
In my practice we ask our patientsto wear compression stockings for two full weeks after surgery. However, I suggestconsulting your own surgeon on this matter as different surgeons have differentpost-op recommendations. Best regards.
Most patients after a mommy makeover are ambulating the next day. Compressive hose are generally not necessary. Nevertheless, follow the specific instructions of your own surgeon.
