Why Face Garments Matter After Facial Surgery
Recovery after facial procedures is as much about healing as it is about results. Whether you've had a facelift, chin liposuction, neck lift, or other cosmetic facial surgery, the right post-operative care can dramatically improve your comfort and outcomes. One of the most important tools in this process is a face garment—a specialized compression piece designed to support your healing from the very first day.
At Hidden Lace Surgical Compression Garments in Subiaco, Perth, we offer professional fittings and guidance to help you find the perfect face garment for your recovery journey. Here's what you need to know.
What Is a Face Garment?
A face garment is a soft, medical-grade compression wrap worn after facial surgeries. It typically covers areas like the chin, jawline, cheeks, and neck, depending on the procedure. These garments are made from stretchable, breathable fabrics and often include Velcro or hook-and-loop closures to allow for a secure and adjustable fit.
Unlike regular shapewear or beauty masks, surgical face garments are specifically engineered to aid healing, reduce swelling, and encourage better surgical results.

Key Benefits of Wearing a Face Garment
Reduces Swelling
Swelling is a natural response after surgery—but managing it can make a big difference in both comfort and healing time. Face garments apply gentle, consistent pressure that helps prevent fluid buildup and promotes faster recovery.
Supports Delicate Tissue
After facial surgery, the skin and underlying tissues are particularly fragile. A well-fitted garment keeps everything securely in place, minimizing the risk of strain, pulling, or irritation.
Enhances Surgical Results
Compression encourages your skin to adhere smoothly to its new contours, which is essential for even healing and optimal aesthetic results. It also reduces the chance of lumps or uneven texture.
Comfortable for Extended Wear
Our face garments are made from soft, breathable materials that are gentle on sensitive skin. They’re designed to be worn day and night, helping you stay comfortable around the clock.
Adjustable for a Secure Fit
Swelling can fluctuate in the days and weeks after surgery. Our garments come with adjustable closures, allowing you to fine-tune the fit as your recovery progresses—ensuring continuous support without discomfort.
