After liposuction, compression garments alone are often insufficient to achieve a smooth result. Lipo Foam and Lipo Boards play a crucial role in the healing phase, as they apply targeted pressure, reduce swelling, and prevent dimpling. This article explains how these aids work, when they should be used, and how to best combine them.
Why do dents and unevenness occur after liposuction?
After liposuction, swelling, fluid retention, and uneven skin adaptation can lead to dimpling. Without additional support, the skin doesn't always adapt evenly to the new body shape. This is precisely where Lipo Foam and Lipo Boards come in.
Lipo Foam – gentle support during the healing phase
What is Lipo Foam?
Lipo Foam is a soft foam material worn between the skin and compression garments. It distributes pressure evenly and prevents hard marks from the faja or bodysuit.
Advantages of Lipo Foam
- Reduces swelling
- Supports skin adaptation
- Prevents dents and unevenness
- Increases the wearing comfort of compression garments.
Lipo Foam is particularly suitable in the early healing phase and can be combined with High Cover Faja, Hourglass Faja or Tummy Body Suit.
Lipo Boards – targeted shaping for stomach, back & sides
What are LiPo boards?
Lipo boards are rigid, anatomically shaped plates that apply targeted pressure to specific areas of the body. They are worn under compression garments and help to stabilize contours.
Applications of Lipo boards
- Belly
- Back
- Sides / Waist
Depending on the area being treated, different variants can be used to promote a uniform result.
Properly combining Lipo Foam & Lipo Boards
The combination of Lipo Foam and Lipo Boards ensures optimal results. While the foam cushions and evenly distributes pressure, the boards stabilize the shape. Together with compression garments, this creates an effective system to support the healing phase.
How long should Lipo Foam & Lipo Boards be worn?
Lipo Foam and Lipo Boards are typically worn for the first few weeks after surgery. The exact duration depends on the individual healing process and the recommendations of the treating physician. Consistent, yet comfortable, use is essential.
Conclusion
Lipo Foam and Lipo Boards are essential additions to compression garments after liposuction. They help reduce swelling, prevent dimpling, and achieve even, smooth results. In combination with High Cover Faja, Hourglass Faja, Ultimate Waist Trainer, or Tummy Body Suit, they support optimal healing.
