What to expect after laser-activated liposuction surgery?
Following surgery, you will be fitted with a magnetic compression garment. Dr. Dedo has shown in a highly sophisticated study that magnetic fields reduce pain. They do not affect wound healing or inflammation but they do reduce pain. Next to the skin are placed absorbant pads to take care of the liquid that naturally drains out in the first 24 hours. Following this, you will wear this magnetic compression garment 24 hours a day for the first week. After that, either this garment or a substitute compression garment is worn for the following 3-4 weeks while you are up. It is not necessary at night when you sleep.
