My PS said to wear the CG for 4-5 weeks. I think it is too loose. Should I get a stage 1 or stage 2?

Thanks!!

You're not that far out are you? I'd say Stage 1 for 4-6 weeks especially if you did lipo and a tummy tuck or LBL

I agree with Leah, get a Stage 1 for 6 months and then you can go for a Stage 2.  I wear both still when I work because of swelling.

I had an extended tummy tuck ~ the inciscion goes around my hips - with lipo. I also had lipo to my thighs.

Sounds like I need to stay in a stage 1. My PS said to wear this CG ~ I just think I need more compression. I have a small amount of fluid below the inciscion - not a seroma per se as it doesn't move like a water bed ~ so I thought more compression would help & I thought stage 2 garments had more compression.

Can I get a stage 1 at makemeheal??

I've never ordered from makemeheal. I know that Design Veronique has compression garments that are excellent and they are the ones that Dr S gives his patients.  I would advise anyone to get one.  For s second stage you can go with the Marena garments they are much less money!
