Multiple Procedure Compression Garments

How Can Multiple Procedure Compression Garments Benefit My Healing Journey?

As you may be having a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) along with other procedures at the same time such as a liposuction, breast, body, or arm procedure, the following garments have been specifically designed to enable you to wear one garment that can address all your procedures. Wearing a garment after breast augmentation is essential to improve blood circulation, minimize swelling after the procedure, keep implants in their correct position, flush the body out of potentially harmful fluids, accelerate the healing process, and allow the patient to return to daily routines sooner. A support breast garment also provides support to surgical areas for more comfort and helps the skin fit better and re-attach to its new body shape. Further, support garments can also help prevent a patient from experiencing some “throbbing” sensations after surgery. The garments can also help reduce the tension on newly formed scars and prevent them from stretching.

Support garments are typically worn immediately after the surgery for a period of time that may range from days to weeks, depending on the doctor’s instructions. 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 shower. As your healing progresses, you should be able to remove the garment for various activities. 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 garments.
