Women's Mid Body Compression Garments

How Can Mid Body Garments Benefit My Healing Journey?

Mid body garments can provide support and compression to various parts of the body after liposuction, including the upper and lower abdomen, flanks, hips, thighs, knees, and calves. Mid body garments cover the back and the stomach up to the under breast area. You can choose mid body garments of different lengths, including below knee, above knee, mid-thigh and brief lengths. You may choose a below knee mid body garment for liposuction of the upper and lower abdomen, flanks, hips, thighs, knees, and calves. An above knee mid body garment provides compression to the upper and lower abdomen, flanks, hips and thighs. The third category of mid body garments are mid-thigh garments that may be used after liposuction of the upper and lower abdomen, flanks and hips. You can choose a brief cut mid body garment for liposuction of the upper and lower abdomen only.

Following liposuction, your doctor will ask you to wear a compression garment. Wearing a compression garment after liposuction is essential to improve blood circulation, minimize swelling after the procedure, flush the body out of potentially harmful fluids, accelerate the healing process, and allow the patient to return to daily routines sooner. A compression garment also provides support to surgical areas for more comfort and helps the skin fit better to its new contours. Depending on your doctor, you may need to wear compression garments during both the First Stage (initial 1-2 weeks of post-op) and Second Stage (2-8 weeks post-op) of recovery. For this reason, you may need to get both a First Stage garment and a Second Stage garment. Our store features a wide variety of First and Second Stage garments. Compression garments are worn like long underwear underneath your clothing. Read more about First & Second Stage Garments.

First Stage Garments

A first stage compression garment is typically worn immediately after the surgery and continuously for several days (or longer depending on the doctor’s instructions) and then non-continuously for the initial 1-2 weeks of post-op. During the initial period of post-op, your doctor may instruct you to wear this garment constantly (even while sleeping) and only remove it when you need to go to the bathroom or to shower. Generally, the amount of time you will need to wear your garment will be reduced as you move forward in your healing journey. Due to heavy drainage and long, continuous periods of time that you may need to wear the garment, it is recommended to purchase 2 Stage One garments.

Second Stage Garments

A second stage garment is typically worn during 2-8 weeks post-op (or longer, depending on the doctor’s instructions). A second stage garment is worn once your first stage garment (first 1-2 weeks of post-op) is no longer appropriate. Generally, the amount of time you will need to wear your garment will be reduced as your move forward in your healing journey. Second stage garments are sized smaller, are more fashionable, and have a less bulky appearance than first stage garments.
