I'm going to be having surgery soon and I would like to understand the necessity of compression for the mons area and are boards and or foam necessary?
Answer: Compression after mons liposuction Hello and thanks for your question! After any type of liposuction we recommend compression to help reduce swelling and promote faster healing. Most patients actually prefer wearing compression for comfort. I do not think that using boards or foam is necessary but I suggest speaking to your doctor for his/her opinion, as every surgeon has their own post op protocol. Best of luck and hope this helps!

Answer: Post Lipo - Lymphatic Massage, Hyperbaric Oxygen, RF (Venus Legacy, Exilis, Vanquish, InMode Forma), Cellutone/Z Wave/Evive Compression needs customization, you should speak to your physician about getting you a customized garment or waist trainer. If you are unhappy with your results please speak to your physician and ensure he was a full body VASER HD liposuction physciain wtih expensive experience in body shaping and not just traditional fat reduction. At this point you should be using compression, RF treatments like venus legacy / exilis ultra / inmode forma or contoura and lymphatic massage to get you through healing. We always add shock wave therapy such as cellutone, z wave, and eclipse evive to help prvent scar tissue formation and ensure an even and smooth result. It will take 6-12 months to see the final outcome. If you are unhappy you can get a revision procedure by an expert in VASER HD lipo. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Any compression after lipo is better than nothing. Compression is very important after liposuctions and i recommend it for 6 weeks to help smooth out lumps/bumps so there is less swelling and the skin reattachs faster and smoother. Mons pubis swells a lot and you really need as much compression as you can get in this area otherwise you won't see any difference for 3-4 months.

Answer: Liposuction Recovery Mybblde19. Generally speaking, compression garments are usually helpful right after all forms of liposuction, including the areas that you describe. The garments assist in reducing swelling and allowing skin contracture to occur a bit faster. In my opinion, placement of boards in that area are not necessary. Discuss all aspects of recovery with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your region. Good luck.
