Tummy Tuck

Do I Really Have to Wear Garments After a Tummy Tuck?

The short answer: yes, you do have to wear a compression garment after a tummy tuck. You'll wake up with one that will feel pretty industrial and tight. Each plastic surgeon will have their own protocols, but for most, you will be able to transition to a more comfortable garment (think something like Spanx) after a few weeks.
