I had lipo on May 24th and wore the garment 24h a day. I am now at the stage where the doctor said to only wear it at night. I was wondering if I wear it during the day instead of during the night - does it make a difference? Is nighttime better for some reason? I haven't been sleeping too comfortably... Thank you!

Answer: Is it better to wear the garment at night versus during the day? Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. This is the surgical procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery becoming one of the most performed cosmetic procedures. Subcutaneous tissue or fat is removed in order to contour the body in a way that is harmonious and pleasing to the senses. It can be performed in almost all regions of the body such as the neck, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, arms and ankles. Usually done through a small incision in the skin through which a cannula connected to a vacuum is applied, it can be performed alone or in combination with other procedures. After liposuction your body is going to be really swollen for at least 2 to 4 months after your surgery. It is important for you to wear your compression garment for at least 6 months, the first 3 months 24/7 and then the last 3 months at least 12 hours per day for your body get use to not having the faja for so many time. When you remove it, your body can get swollen and also you can have pain. Remember to also compress your body to prevent a seroma which is an accumulation of liquid that has to be drained, it is hard to touch and also really painful. Bruises are completely normal for almost 3 months from surgery, that’s why is better for you to use a bruising cream and apply it all over your body 3 times a day. To prevent bad circulation and swollen legs, use compression socks. Brazilian butt lift can be performed with the same procedure and for a month it will be swollen and it will drop a little bit without losing it’s shape if you use your garment.. If you’re going to perform liposuction on your inner, outer, anterior, lateral, postetior thighs, be careful and consult with your surgeon what’s best for you, sometimes we have more extra skin than fat, that can cause severe sagginess on our legs, which can be only be reversed performing a thigh lift…

Answer: Wearing garments at night.. Garment use can vary from doctor to doctor. Your doctor may want to you to wear it at night because he may think that it is more cumbersome during the day. Usually it is good to wear it as much as possible if there is any swelling. Sometimes more swelling comes at night so the garment helps restrict that. It is always best to follow the instructions of your surgeon, but if you have concerns be sure to ask him.
