About Our Tummy Tuck Compression Garments
It is imperative to wear a tummy tuck compression garment after surgery to ensure your body gets the optimum support while recovering. You should start wearing your abdominoplasty compression garment immediately post op, for at least 6 weeks. Speak to your surgeon before your procedure and throughout your recovery about your post tummy tuck compression garments to make sure you are wearing the right support for the right amount of time.
With the help of a team of experts, we have created a surgeon-approved range of tummy tuck compression garments aimed at speeding up your recovery and enhancing the surgical results.
Choose From Abdominal Binders, Girdles & Bodysuits Post Tummy Tuck
Our post tummy tuck compression garments are designed to target specific areas of your body. For Stage 1 of your tummy tuck recovery, you will need strong compression in targeted areas. For Stage 2, you can use shapewear and compression garments with less intense compression.
We have a number of different midsection and stomach compression garments, each created with the unique purpose of providing healing support post abdominal surgery. Depending on your body’s needs, you can choose from abdominal binders, girdles (high-waist and with shorts) and bodysuits.
Features Of Abdominoplasty Compression Garments
For optimal comfort and support post surgery, your abdominal compression garments should have:
- Front or side closures – to make it easier to get your compression garment on and off post op.
- Adjustable fastenings and straps – to tighten and loosen as your swelling reduces, which is key to maintaining good compression throughout recovery.
- Outward facing seams – to avoid irritation on your skin, particularly on your incisions, and to maintain comfort.
All of macom's post surgical compression garments have been crafted with these features in mind.
