  • Is a compression garment...

Is a compression garment following Lipo a must?

  • Created: November 9, 2013

I had a MM on 11/6, full TT, BL/BA and Lipo to inner/outer thighs. When I came out of surgery, I had to wear compression thigh highs for 48 hours, then take them off. The Dr and follow up calls told me what to do for my breasts and stomach, but said I didn't have to wear anything for the Lipo. (Maybe I'll get one on Tuesday at my next appointment).  I find this unusual, but don't have experience to rely on. What are your thoughts on this? While I will do whatever my Dr tells me, have you heard of not wearing a compression garment following Lipo she other procedures were performed?
