Living alone, I worry about being able to put the other contraption on by myself, thank you.
Answer: Compression after an arm lift Ace wraps for Coban can safely be used after an arm lift if applied very carefully. The compression needs to start at the hand or wrist, and slowly decrease in tension toward the armpit. Often the ace wrap will have to be taped to prevent it from slipping on itself. This makes Coban a better option. Do not wrap to tightly!

Answer: Not a good choice Brachioplasty sleeves are best put on with help but can be still accomplished solo. Ace wraps on the arms invariably roll up and cause contour irregularities and can restrict circulation. You want a garment that exerts seamless tapered support such as a designated lycra sleeve.

Answer: Can ace bandages be used after an arm lift? Typically I order a special garment for each patient getting an arm lift to ensure the fit is appropriate for their size but tight enough to reduce swelling. It looks like a long sleeve of a shirt and can typically be applied easily by the patient without help. An ACE wrap is an alternative, but can sometimes be more difficult to wrap than the sleeve, and often doesn't give as good of compression.Best, Dr. Nagi Ayoub

Answer: Ace wrap and bracheoplasty Yes, an ace wrap is fine, I use them on my patients post operatively. It's important to make sure it's wrapped securely up into the armpit to prevent swelling if it's below the end of the incision.
