I had an umbilical hernia surgery, lipo and tummy tuck. It's been 8 weeks using it on the regular day, I take it off to sleep. I can't wait to start working out, but I'm scared my hernia can come back.

Answer: Compression Belt & Activity level after surgery Thank you for your question! I instruct my patients to wear the post-surgical compression garment for 1 month post surgery. At 6 weeks post-surgery you may go back to normal activities with no restriction. Start slow and work you way up to where you were before surgery. It would be best to check with you own Plastic Surgeon as each has their own protocol. They should be able to guide you and answer all of your specific questions.
