Will I be able to take off my compression garment 3 days after surgery?

Since you already invest time and money to have a procedure I don't advise any patient to remove the garment during the period their PS suggest because the compression does help a lot during recovery and consider that even if you're not wearing it, you'll be swollen and bruised and your guest will still be able to notice you had something done. My advise is to either go about with your visit wearing your garment or reschedule it.

It is common for doctors to require neck compression after chin liposuction. The duration can vary, with some recommending a few days and some recommending a few weeks. It will depend on the surgeon, the technique, and exactly what was done during the procedure. This is a question best asked to your surgeon.

Dear simmie1990,
I understand your concern. It is best that you consult your plastic surgeon regarding post operative care and management (i.e including massage techniques and timing) specific to your case. Your surgeon knows your condition well and has preferences on when and what to use for faster healing and recovery. Post operative care and management depends on the type of surgery performed and the technique used during surgery among other factors.It is best, however, that you follow your plastic surgeon's advice on post operative care management for a smooth and faster healing and recovery.
