Compression Garments for Different Liposuction Areas

Learn why garment design and coverage vary for treatment areas such as the abdomen, waist, back, thighs, arms, chin and neck.

Why Different Garments Are Available

Each body area has a different anatomy and range of movement. A design that provides balanced support in one area will not necessarily do so in another.

Postoperative compression garments therefore have different cuts and coverage according to the treatment area.

A General Guide by Treatment Area

The following is a general guide; the final choice rests with your surgeon.

Why Coverage Matters

If the garment ends exactly at the edge of the treated area, pressure may change at that boundary. A suitable garment covers both the treatment area and the surrounding region.

If several areas have been treated, one garment may not be sufficient; a combination of products may be needed.
