I had a mommy makeover 8/4/14 - BA, TT, MR, lipo of flanks/inner thighs and I've been wearing support bras, compression garments, spanx, binders, etc, almost 24/7... taking them off only to wash or do laundry. I'm starting to feel like a constricted sausage. :/

Answer: Support Garments Because there is swelling following surgery of the abdomen and breasts following this surgery, compression garments are used for support, comfort, and to enhance healing. Generally, these garments are worn for 6 weeks depending on the patients comfort. A lighter garment is usually worn for several months if it provides comfort and to reduce some residual swelling.

Answer: Compression Garments After Mommy Makeover Surgery I have my patients wear their compression garments from 4 to 6 weeks. I know that it is quite cumbersome and not that comfortable, but for the best result you should continue as you are doing until your surgeon says otherwise you will be glad you did. Good luck
