A garment in the form of a vest, shirt, pants, leggings, or whole-body suit intended to tightly fit over and apply compression/pressure (i.e., graduated or even-force) to an area of the upper and/or mid/lower body to support skin/subcutaneous healing and scar prevention, to exude excessive interstitial fluid, and/or to help improve proprioception. It is a piece of clothing designed to be worn around the hips and/or shoulders, and is neither a strip/roll binder, limb sleeve, glove, nor sock. It is typically made of cotton or synthetic elastic material (e.g., Lycra); it does not include antimicrobial features. Absorbent pads may be used underneath the device. This is a reusable device.
