Very often patients ask the question: ” How long should you wear compression underwear after mammoplasty ?” The answer to this question must be obtained from your plastic surgeon , since only he has all the necessary information in your specific case.
It follows from this that the period of wearing compression garments after breast augmentation is determined individually.
However, there are observations and average statistics regarding the period during which breast bandages are worn after plastic surgery – about 9 weeks after surgery .
Two-step compression therapy after mammoplasty
Plastic surgeons divide the recovery period after surgery into two periods . The first lasts for the first two weeks and is characterized by the presence of swelling, as well as increased sterility measures. The second is the following weeks from the third to the ninth inclusive, when the main attention is paid to maintaining compression while reducing swelling and the fastest possible tightening of scars. Each period corresponds to its own type of underwear.
These products are visually almost indistinguishable. All the emphasis is placed on the difference in compression and the properties of the bandage fabric .
Most compression garment manufacturers provide one bandage after plastic surgery. However, each of the two stages of the recovery process requires different approaches. That is why LIPOELASTIC has developed a 2-step program for maximum comfort and achieving the desired result after breast augmentation surgery.
1 STEP
- USED IMMEDIATELY AFTER SURGERY
- IT IS RECOMMENDED TO BE WEARED CONTINUOUSLY FOR 1-2 WEEKS AFTER THE SURGERY
When used during the first stage after surgery, a compression bandage has an invaluable effect on stabilizing breast implants and shaping contours . It eliminates the possibility of improper fixation of implants and ensures their symmetry. The main advantage of bandages used during the first stage is the shape of the cups, which are seamless, two-layer, modeled from elastic cotton, which makes them comfortable to wear for a long time.
This shape eliminates unwanted skin irritation and allows easy manipulation of hooks and zippers. Specially reinforced cups provide even distribution of compression and optimal breast support.
1 st STEP – pleasant feeling during wearing and ease of use
- Prevents unwanted skin irritation
- Provides controlled compression
- The seamless design does not “irritate” the lymphatic system
- Easy on the skin, soft material
- It massages the skin beneficially, promoting the absorption of scars
2 STEP
- USED IN THE SECOND STAGE
- RECOMMENDED TO BE WORN FOR 6 WEEKS
PI UNIQUE is a relatively recent innovation. It was developed in response to the demands of demanding surgeons who wanted to protect themselves from unexpected complications in their patients.
PI UNIQUE is essentially a lightweight version of classic compression underwear used after plastic surgery. Its design is aimed at maintaining the necessary level of compression in the chest area and weakening it in the décolleté and back area.
2 nd STEP FOR a long-lasting feeling of freshness of your skin
- Breathable material allows air circulation and prevents moisture accumulation
- Maintains a constant body temperature
- Protects the body from cold
Due to its lightweight design, our customers use PI UNIQUE not for its intended purpose, for example, for sports, long-distance travel, and outdoor trips, which we are very happy about!!!
