Compression garments after liposuction or ace bandage?

Hello,Given its location, that part of your neck cannot be adequately compressed with anything, so an Ace wrap is as good as anything else.Best of luck!

Compression, lymphatic massage, and RF treatments are essential for healing in this area in my practice. I suggest speaking to your physician.  Best, Dr. Emer.

 Thank you for your question. Compression garments are really based on preference for each surgeon. We tend to use garments rather than a straps because they're more comfortable and easier to use and maneuver on a daily basis after surgery. If the ace wraps or uncomfortable I would mention this to your plastic surgeon.

After liposuction, compression of the tissues is very important, and this is best served with a compression garment.  SAce bandages do not stay ion their proper position for extended periods of time.

It is quite difficult to get good compression over the buffalo hump. Furthermore, some surgeons do not evens compression.

Dear Mikal,any bandage or garment needs to provide proper compression to the are which has been treated.some manufacturer makes very specific garment for each area and perhaps you can have a look at that.The ace bandage can apply some compression but it might not be very specific thus reducing the compression.please discuss this in person with your plastic surgeon and ask him to order a more specific garment to be able to provide a proper compression which is essential in the first four weeks post-surgery
