  • Immediately after operation:
    • You will be mandated to wear a medical-grade garment every day for 4 to 8 weeks to reduce swelling. Depending on the invasiveness of your Tummy tuck surgery, you might have to wear a medical-grade compression garment or regular Spanx garment for 6 weeks or longer.
    • In this time you can also wear a loose dress, sweatpants, or a baggy shirt.
  • Six to Eight Weeks Post-Op: 
    • Once your doctor suggests that you no longer need to wear compression garments, you will have to wear comfortable clothing for the next few weeks. Easy to wear and remove clothes that are soft on touch. Such as yoga pants, sweatpants, a zip-up sweater, drawstring pants, button up top, or skirts.
    • you may go down by a size or two after fully recovering from tummy tuck surgery and may find that your previous clothes don't fit.

 

If you have any doubts, communicate with your surgeon first and foremost.
