Compression Garments After Liposuction Explained
Liposuction is an effective body-contouring procedure, but the recovery process determines the final results. Without proper post-op care, swelling can undermine results, cause discomfort, or lead to uneven contours.
Compression garments after liposuction are essential. At Laura’s Touch, we provide post-surgery compression garments and combine them with manual lymphatic drainage for comprehensive post-surgery body contouring.
Why Compression Garments Matter
After liposuction, small tunnels remain in fatty tissue. The body produces fluid as part of healing. If fluid collects, it can harden or leave irregularities. Compression garments:
- Reduce swelling
- Prevent fluid pockets
- Promote even skin retraction
- Support smoother, symmetrical contours
Types of Post-Op Garments
- Full-Body Compression Garments – for multiple areas: abdomen, hips, thighs
- Abdominal Compression Garments – supports midsection healing
- Thigh Compression Garments – supports leg contouring
All garments work best in combination with manual lymphatic drainage for post-operative care.
How Lymphatic Drainage Enhances Recovery
MLD helps:
- Reduce fluid retention
- Prevent hard fibrosis
- Improve tissue oxygenation
- Increase comfort
Recommended: 45-minute post-op MLD sessions, often weekly for 4–6 weeks.
