After a plastic surgery procedure, such as a tummy tuck, the use of compression garments or abdominal binders is typically recommended for several weeks. These garments serve to provide support, reduce swelling, and promote proper healing by minimizing fluid accumulation and improving blood circulation. They help contour the treated area, reduce discomfort, and optimize the final results of your surgery. Your plastic surgeon will provide specific instructions on how long to wear them based on your individual case, ensuring a safe and successful recovery.
