How long do I wear the Abdominal Binder?

Question: How  long do I need to wear my Abdominal Binder?

Answer:

On average, women wear their abdominal binders 6-8 weeks post op. A lot depends on the actual procedure you had, and if there were any complications. Many women will start to only wear during the day, while they are active. They “wean” themselves off the binder as they move through recovery. Just listen to your body!

Every one is different, and we recommend talking to your doctor about wearing the binder and the length of time that would be beneficial for you.
