Thank you for your question. Advise on showering will depend on your surgeon's instructions as some of the patients were discharged from the hospital with waterproof plaster covering their wounds and compression garment. Generally during the first 24-48 hrs, you can do tepid sponge bath.
I am not aware of any surgeon recommending you shower in your post-liposuction garments. I usually advice my patients get out of the garments after 48 hours and then shower. You can then get back into a new garment or wash your garment while you shower and dry. Ask your surgeon what you should do or look at your instruction sheet. Best, Dr. ALDO
You can follow up with your Dr. about their protocols, but generally people remove them to shower. I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease swelling. I also recommend adding coolsculpting/vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin's appearance. Best, Dr. Emer
Thank you for sharing your question. Though always best to ask your treating physician, patients are supposed to remove their compression garment to shower and then replace it once done. Hope this helps.
Thank you for your question. I tell my patients to remove garment and quick shower next day. Please talk to your surgeon as everyone has different approach
