Will a Compression garment kill the fat in my fat grafted hips?

I prefer adjustable garments with multiple bands so that tension can be adjusted and the areas of liposuction are less likely to get a fluid collection.   The garments typically do NOT cover the buttocks.  The key here is the size and the ability to tighten the garment not the brand or make. I ask my patients to wear compression garments to help obliterate dead space and reduce the incidence of fluid collections. A soft t-shirt worn under the garment prevents it from being scratchy.

Following surgery, patients are placed in a compression garment to assist with swelling; this garment needs to be worn for four to six weeks, depending on their rate of healing and the individual person. Check with your doctor on his recommendations, good luck!

Hi and welcome yo our forum!
A poorly fitted compression garment may result in uneven compression, resulting in contour irregularities. In rare instances, skin necrosis may occur. A poorly fitted garment will cause an inordinate amount of pain as well, and requires evaluation. It is important to maintain close followup with your plastic surgeon and follow his / her directions regarding garment choice and fit before and after surgery.
Best wishes!

I prefer an open garment over the buttock region with compression over lipo sites. Best to review with your surgeon.
