Tummy Tuck Compression Garments from ContourMD

Tummy tucks, or abdominoplasty surgery, is a plastic surgery procedure where excess skin around the abdomen area is removed while the remaining skin is tightened. After pregnancy, weight loss or simply later in life the skin around the mid-section can become loose and can lose its elasticity. Though exercise and diet can help, a tummy tuck or abdominal surgery can help shape your body where diet and exercise cannot. Scars after tummy tuck surgery are usually below the swimsuit line and can be treated with a scar creams and gels and silicone sheeting.

Wearing a compression garment such as an abdominal binder, compression girdle or abdominal panty garment will help your body heal faster and with better results after surgery. Tummy tuck compression garments help the body heal to its new contour while the snug fit will help reduce swelling and bruising around the area of the tummy tuck surgery. Compression garments can help increase circulation to help your body flush out harmful fluids. It is important to wear your compression tummy tuck garment continuously, so having two on hand will allow you to wear one while the other is being washed.

We strongly recommend against drying your garment in the clothes dryer as the high heat can reduce the garment's compressive nature.
