Description
- 31"-34" hip measurement
- Ordering the appropriately sized garment is important in achieving ideal compression for recovery after liposuction or plastic surgical procedures. The STANDARD garment size will be based on your PRE-PROCEDURE measurements, since POST-PROCEDURE care may include drains and pads. If you are BETWEEN SIZES, consider ordering UP. If you are UNDER 5'4" or have a short torso, try our Compression Garment with a Standard Height waist.
- In the first few days after surgery, when swelling is at its peak, the compression garment should be snug, firm or tight (but not painful). It will feel less snug as swelling subsides and recovery progresses. The correct fit will provide support and compression to help reduce swelling (edema), aid in pushing fluids into the lymph system for removal from the body and help with proper skin retraction which promotes general body contouring.
- This garment features a 3 inch waistband, double tummy panel in front, reinforced open crotch, full length zippers and Velcro closures on each leg. The skin is protected from the zipper by a full length foam pad. Lace trim is sewn along the bottom of each pant leg to prevent rollup.
- To put on the garment, unzip both zippers to mid-thigh, place your feet into the garment openings and position the lace trim below the knee. Bring the garment up so that the crotch opening and the waist are properly positioned. As you slowly begin to zip up the legs, ensure that the foam is lying flat and is not bunched. It is helpful to have assistance from another person when donning the garment, especially during the first week following a procedure or surgery
Featuring an extra high waistline for support after thighplasty, abdominal or side flank surgery and liposuction procedures involving the waist, hip and thighs. Our below-the-knee compression pants help to minimize swelling and reduce fluid build-up, promote skin retraction and improve body contouring.
