Prices & Sizes of Surgical Compression Garments

The prices of surgical compression garments do vary due to the type of garment that you want and the size that you require.

Compression garments that are included in surgery price

The first thing to consider before going ahead and purchasing your compression garment is to check whether or not this is included in the price of your surgery. This is because some clinics do cover the cost of compression garments in the total price of the post-surgical care. The second thing to consider before buying the garment is the amount of swelling that the surgery could potentially create. You should ensure that if the garment has to have hooks on it (for example a surgical bra) then it should have two sets so that you can change the hook settings rather than having to buy a second garment.


If you are with a clinic that does not offer this in the total price, then the best and often cheapest place to purchase the compression garments is on the internet. Some retailers will be able to offer you a discount on the total price of your order especially if you are buying more than one garment at a time.
