Qinelle Recovery Glossary
This glossary explains common terms used in post-surgery compression, recovery support, and everyday shapewear. It helps customers understand garment types, recovery-stage language, and Qinelle product categories.
Qinelle garments are not medical devices. Always follow your surgeon’s or healthcare provider’s instructions for compression level, garment timing, and recovery-stage needs.
Post-Surgery Compression Garment
A post-surgery compression garment is a supportive garment designed to apply gentle, consistent pressure after procedures such as liposuction, tummy tuck, BBL, or C-section. Explore post-surgery compression garments.
Stage 1 Compression Garment
A Stage 1 compression garment is typically used in the early recovery period when swelling and sensitivity may be higher. Stage 1 styles often focus on easier wear, adjustable closures, and supportive coverage.
Stage 2 Compression Garment
A Stage 2 compression garment is commonly used later in recovery when the body may be ready for smoother shaping and longer daily wear. Stage 2 styles often feel more fitted and streamlined than early-stage garments.
Liposuction Recovery Compression Garment
A liposuction recovery compression garment is designed to support areas treated by liposuction, such as the abdomen, waist, thighs, arms, chin, or back. Learn about liposuction recovery compression garments.
Tummy Tuck Compression Garment
A tummy tuck compression garment supports the abdominal area after tummy tuck recovery. Common features may include high-waist coverage, front closures, and smooth abdominal support. Explore tummy tuck compression garments.
BBL Recovery Garment
A BBL recovery garment is designed for Brazilian Butt Lift recovery support. Many BBL-friendly styles use compression around the waist, abdomen, and thighs while considering comfort around the buttock area. Explore BBL recovery garments.
C-Section Recovery Compression Garment
A C-section recovery compression garment is a postpartum support style designed for gentle lower-abdominal support and everyday recovery comfort after birth. Explore C-section recovery compression garments.
Post-Surgical Bra
A post-surgical bra is a recovery-support bra designed for soft coverage, gentle support, and easier wear after breast surgery or post-op recovery. Explore post-surgical bras.
Open-Bust Compression Bodysuit
An open-bust compression bodysuit provides compression through the torso while allowing the wearer to pair it with a preferred bra or post-surgical bra. It is commonly used for abdominal, waist, and torso support.
Front-Closure Recovery Garment
A front-closure recovery garment uses hooks, zippers, or adjustable front fastenings to make dressing easier during recovery. This can be useful when bending, twisting, or reaching behind the body is uncomfortable.
High-Waist Compression Leggings
High-waist compression leggings provide support around the abdomen, waist, hips, and legs. They may be used for post-surgery recovery support or everyday shaping, depending on compression level and garment design.
Everyday Shapewear
Everyday shapewear is designed for smoothing, sculpting, and daily outfit support. Unlike post-surgery compression garments, everyday shapewear is generally focused on appearance, comfort, and daily wear rather than recovery-stage support. Shop everyday shapewear.

What is a post-surgery compression garment?
A post-surgery compression garment is a supportive recovery garment worn after procedures such as liposuction, BBL, tummy tuck, C-section, or body contouring. It may help provide gentle support, improve comfort under clothing, and keep treated areas covered during the recovery stage recommended by a clinician.
What does compression level mean?
Compression level describes how firm a garment feels on the body. Light, medium, firm, and extra-firm compression can feel different depending on fabric, panel design, closures, and sizing. For post-operative recovery, the right level should follow professional guidance rather than guesswork.
What is the difference between stage-one and stage-two garments?
Stage-one garments are often associated with early recovery needs, when adjustability and easy access can matter. Stage-two garments are commonly used later, when swelling and sizing needs may change. Timing varies by procedure and surgeon instructions.

Use this glossary to decode product terms, compare garment designs, and understand why features such as open-crotch access, front hooks, adjustable straps, buttock openings, and reinforced abdominal panels may matter for different recovery scenarios.
