From minimizing bruising and swelling to assisting the body in forging new connections with the affected area, there is almost no end to the benefits of compression garments. This article will introduce three reasons to use your compression garments following your liposuction procedure.

While it is somewhat inescapable, you can still maximize your healing potential and reduce the overall discomfort with great fitting and invisible compression garments. Our patients rave about the minimal bruising incurred as a result of wearing simple compression garments.

Additionally, some serum will collect and a little injected tumescent fluid is left over. All this is very normal and can be aggressively controlled with the use of compression garments.
Compression garments melt the extra skin away
Compression garments harness your body’s natural healing ability by physically holding the skin to the muscle. Properly worn compression garments eliminate lumps and sagging skin that could otherwise result from a poor recovery.

Remember the time-frame garments are worn depends on the extent of the surgery. Any plastic surgery will trigger the body’s natural healing processes. Listen to your cosmetic plastic surgeon.
