Arm lift, tummy tuck, compression garments - going to BajaMed for surgery

[crazyj 0]

Hi everyone, I'm going to BajaMed in Tijuana in June for plastic surgery. Has anyone used them? Does anyone know where to get plus size compression garments?

Thanks for any advice.

I haven't used them, but do they not provide compression garments? The surgeon I used provided them. If you have to buy your own, you could try makemeheal.com

Yes they do provide them but they are $100 plus. Was trying to find an affordable option.

That pretty much is what they cost, they are expensive. Do not short yourself and buy an inferior brand/garment. Having the right compression garment is paramount in helping you heal correctly. Good luck with surgery I have been to Tijuana twice for plastics and had a great experience both times.

I agree with @@Threetimesacharm that compression garments are not something you want to skimp on. They are critical for proper healing long term. You can get away with budget versions of stage 2 or 3 garments (like generic Spanks), but for stage 1, you want to have something heavy and durable that is really going to hold everything together,

These things are soooo important - These are the ones I had and they were worth their weight in gold!

At first I had to buy my own - Then the Hospital started getting them.....

@"Threetimesacharm" do you mind sharing who did your plastics in Tijuana and what the costs were? Trying to start saving now but really clueless what the cost is over there

@@crazyj Plus they fit you to the one you will need.... If you buy from internet, it may not be the one you need. And they cost about the same.

I agree with the others.... that compression garment is soooooo important. Do yourself a favor and buy the dr.'s one.
