Hello! I would like to know how compression garments help heal after liposuction of the thighs (inner and outer) and tummy tuck. Is the attached photo similar to what I would get after my procedure?

Answer: Compression garment Dear maomichambers,compression garments help with fluid buildup by restricting it. Regarding the type of compression garment, every plastic surgeon has his own type which he prefers and recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am. Society of Plastic Surgery

Answer: Compression Garment Thank you for your question. Compression garments help reduce swelling and provide a smooth contour to optimize your results. I recommend that my patients wear compression garments 3 weeks post op 24/7, then 3 additional weeks at night only. Best of luck!
