After the surgery, immediately, you will have to wear a compression garment for the body to adapt to the new contour and decrease inflammation. Swelling is a part of post-operative recovery. Compression garments distribute the pressure evenly across the operated area and prevent fluid accumulation in the area. It also reduces other complications like bleeding, bruising and permanent scarring. In addition, compression garments help the skin fit in the new shape.
It is necessary to wear compression garments all the time during the first few weeks. After that, the duration for wearing the compression garment decreases to 12 hours a day or whenever you need support in the operating area during the later weeks.
Some surgeons would instruct you to wear the compression garment at all times for the first few months after the surgery, while other surgeons might not follow the same method. The instruction for the recovery period varies from surgeon to surgeon and depends mainly on the kind of technique used for surgery.
If a large quantity of fat were removed, the patient would have to wear the compression garment for a more extended period as compared to the patient who has undergone minor surgery. The surgeon has the best knowledge, and they know the most appropriate choice for you.
