Why should we use Post- Surgical Compression Garments?

Patricia Batista


Post-Surgical Compression Garments help in smooth recovery after surgical procedures. These garments are made from elastic materials and nylon. Compression garments are used to support the surgical site, incisions, and affected skin after surgery. Wearing these garments ensures that specific areas of the body receive constant pressure and are made to fit every type of body. 


  • Speedy Recovery: Compression Garments help in speedy recovery. Compression garments regulate the flow of blood and lymphatic fluid, help to combat swelling, and can be worn discreetly under clothes.
  •  Promote Comfort: The increased circulation achieved from the garments will decrease pain, inflammation, and muscle spasms. This all promotes an increase in comfort during your recovery period.
  • Minimize swelling: Post-surgical compression garments help reduce swelling and pain, promote healing, and can help you avoid or minimize stoma.


You may have just gone through a surgery like a mastectomy, ovarian cyst removal, or hysterectomy; or had an episode of cancer treatment like chemo. 


  • Reduce swelling: Post-surgical compression garments help minimize swelling and pain during the immediate postoperative period by creating an environment that promotes healing.


  • Better blood circulation: When a patient undergoes surgery, especially on the legs, the blood must be pushed towards the heart to maintain normal perfusion levels. Leg garments provide continuous pressure that aids this process by compressing and diminishing blood pooling.
  • Enhanced Confidence: The garment helps to eliminate the need for bulky bandages and provides you with the necessary compression, which will make you feel more comfortable.
  • Increased Protection: Your incisions are protected by the garments and are less likely to get dirty with activity.
  • Breathing Easier: The majority of post-surgical compression garments have a ventilation panel or zipper in them that allow free flow of air when sitting or laying down.
  • Reduce Pain: Compression garments help reduce swelling and speed up healing by applying gentle pressure to the area.
  • Protect Skin. While they're not impervious to damage, compression garments provide an extra layer of protection between your skin and whatever you got going on under there that might be bothersome.
  • Improve Circulation: The applied pressure can help improve circulation to promote healing.
  • Speed Recovery Time: It can take weeks for post-surgical swelling to subside, and compression garments can help drastically reduce that time.


End of story

Post-Surgical Compression Garments help aid the healing process, Recovery, Swelling, and Confidence. These are carefully crafted to complement all body shapes and make transitional apparel fashionable without compromising comfort and quality.
