I'm 1 month post op and still wearing my garment. I am going to an amusement park tomorrow and it's way too hot for a compression garment. Will I be fine going 1-2 days without it?
Answer: Compression garments Hi, thank you for your question. Compression garments needs to be worn at all times during your first 6 weeks of recovery. The compression garment is important for support and to reduce swelling. Although removing the garment may not cause too much harm, having no garment for long time will increase swelling.

Answer: Liposuction and Garment I find that after 3 weeks it wont matter too much if you wear the garment as often but more than not for 2-3 months is best. Dr. Emer.

Answer: Compression after liposuction I tell my patients it is important to be very strict about their garment for the first 2 to 4 weeks after surgery. After that, the risk of fluid collections and major contour problems is less likely. But you will definitely notice more swelling if you skip your garment all day walking around at an amusement park. I would plan to wear it all night at the very least.

Answer: Compression garments assist in achieving better results Compression garments are designed to limit and control postoperative swelling after body contouring procedures. Although it is safe to go without wearing the garment for brief periods, prolonged periods may result in increased swelling, possible contour irregularities, and prolonged recovery period. You should probably ask your Plastic Surgeon whether this is advisable for you to stop wearing your garment.Good luck with the rest of your recovery!
