Recovery Items Timeline

Recovery Question

Hello. I’m scheduled for ETT with 360 lipo in July. I’m a little confused about the timeline on some of the recovery items. Any clarification is appreciated!

If using a red light belt, when do you start using?

None of my post-op literature from my surgeon says anything about buying a faja, it just says I’ll wake up in a binder. At what point do people typically switch to faja?

At what point do you start using scar gel/scar tapes?

At what point are folks starting supplements such as Juven, bromelain, BruiseMd, arnica, etc? Immediately post-op?

Thank you!
