Why would I need a compression insert after surgery?

Compression inserts are worn beneath the compression garment, in contact with the skin, providing gentle, uniform and continuous compression thus helping to keep the treated area flat. The inserts help to decrease dead space, and facilitate the retraction of the skin post detachment. The insert provides support to the surgical site and helps to avoid fluid retention, minimising the risk of haematomas, alleviating the bruising & optimising lymphatic drainage post procedure.

What is the difference between the 2003 & 2004 garments?

The only difference between the 2003 & 2004 is the placement of the hook and eye fastenings. The 2003 has the fastenings on the side which makes it a more suitable garment for patients having a caesarean or a tummy tuck as the eye hooks will not rub on any incisions. The 2004, like all of our other hook and eye garments, has the eye hooks positioned down the middle.
