Tummy Tuck Binder (Abdominoplasty)

Description

Navanah's tummy tuck binder, also known as an abdominal binder or compression garment, is a supportive garment often recommended by surgeons after undergoing a tummy tuck or abdominoplasty procedure. This specialized garment offers several benefits during the recovery period after cosmetic surgery:

Reduced Swelling and Bruising: A tummy tuck binder provides gentle compression to the surgical area, helping to minimize post-operative swelling and bruising. The pressure from the binder can prevent the accumulation of excess fluid in the surgical site, which can contribute to a more comfortable and faster recovery.
Support for Healing Tissues: After a tummy tuck surgery, the abdominal muscles and skin may need time to heal and reattach properly. Wearing a binder provides gentle support to these healing tissues, helping to reduce strain and promote proper alignment of the muscles.
Pain Management: The compression provided by the binder can help alleviate discomfort and pain associated with the surgery. It can also reduce the sensation of pulling or stretching in the surgical area, making the recovery process more bearable.
Improved Scar Healing: Compression garments like binders can potentially help scars heal more evenly and minimize their visibility. The pressure applied by the binder can help prevent excessive scar tissue formation and encourage the healing process.
Better Posture: A tummy tuck binder provides support to the abdominal muscles, which in turn can encourage better posture during the recovery phase. Maintaining proper posture is essential for minimizing strain on the healing muscles and promoting optimal healing.
Enhanced Confidence: Wearing a tummy tuck binder can offer a sense of security and comfort during the initial recovery period. This improved comfort and support can boost the patient's overall confidence as they navigate the healing process.
Stabilization: The binder helps to stabilize the surgical area, reducing the risk of accidental movements that might compromise the results of the surgery. This stability is particularly important during the first few weeks following the procedure.
Gradual Reduction of Binder Use: As the healing progresses, patients often transition from wearing the binder full-time to using it during specific activities or times of the day. This gradual reduction in binder use allows the body to adapt naturally and supports a smoother transition to normal daily activities.

The point at which you can stop wearing the binder will depend on your healing progress and your surgeon's advice. They will guide you on the appropriate timeline for transitioning away from the binder as your body recovers.

Size guide

To choose the right size of my girdle, follow the recommendations below:

It is important to keep in mind that the size of your girdle may vary according to your taste, since there are many women who are used to wearing a girdle and each time they want to wear a smaller size because they are reducing their measurements or their body is being molded, giving shape to the figure, which allows the size to be smaller.

Therefore, if this is the first time you are going to use girdles, choose a larger size.

Increase the use of the garment gradually so that your body adapts to the level of compression.

Finally, carefully follow the steps below to find your size.
