Is there a reason to wear a bodysuit compression garment after Vaser Liposuction?

After Vaser Liposuction on your stomach and flanks, is there a reason the Dr would have you wear a bodysuit compression garment rather than something like a back brace type belt? The brace would give more adjustability for tightness and also covers the same areas covered in surgery. Seems like a better choice, especially because you don’t have to put pants over it and it doesn’t interfere with going to the bathroom at all.
