Description
- 31"-34" hip measurement
- Size is based on your PRE-PROCEDURE MEASUREMENTS. If you are BETWEEN SIZES, strongly consider ordering a larger size. This medical garment is designed to be worn during recovery from a surgical procedure. Listed measurements should be used as a SIZING GUIDELINE. Like clothing in general, the compression garment may fit people differently depending upon their height, torso length, proportion, weight distribution and other factors.
- 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) and help with proper skin retraction which promotes general body contouring. IF YOU ARE UNDER 5'4" or have a short torso, try our Compression Garment with a STANDARD Height waist.
- 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 slightly above 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 following a recent 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 above-the-knee compression pants help to minimize swelling and reduce fluid build-up, promote skin retraction and body contouring.
