A big leap forward in post-surgical comfort and healing has arrived on the scene: the world’s first post-surgical compression garment with a zipper in the back. This innovation is the latest to join Design Veronique’s System of styles designed to help women heal after abdominal surgery or a Mommy Makeover.
The Back Zipper Advantage
Until now, compression garments either had front or side closures, which could be irritating to sensitive surgical wounds.After studying the problem, and experimenting with numerous designs, Design Veronique found that moving the zipper to the back produced a far more comfortable fit. The medical garment, developed by Veronica C. Smith, CEO and Design Director, was introduced at the Plastic Surgery The Meeting, on October 27 in Austin TX. It’s a break-through in Medical Compression Garment Therapy™ welcomed by medical professionals and patients alike.
A System of Medical Compression Garments that cover the three important C’s – Compression, Comfort and Compliance™
The Mommy Makeover medical garments are the newest addition to Design Veronique’s system of Medical Compression Garment Therapy™. Each item is targeted to a phase of the healing process. Immediately after surgery, during the critical phase 1 the patient will wear a Medical binder. Design Veronique’s new binder allows for drains to be strategically attached for optimal drainage. Contouring Phase 2 is a medical garment with 360˚ compression to support all surgical areas. The transitional phase 3 medical garment provides extra support and comfort during the final skin retracting and body contouring transitioning phase.
“Until now, typical compression garments used zippers or other closures in front or on the sides. These would irritate sensitive surgical wounds; leave marks on the skin and/or would bunch up in front or on the sides. Our new design features a plush paddedback zipper that won’t dig into the skin, and makes sleeping on the back more comfortable,” says Veronica. “It’s an important addition to our Medical Compression Garment Therapy™ system.”
Designed by Women for Women
Like all Design Veronique products, the new back zip medical garments (Style # DV-2,DV-2b, DV-3, DV-3b: Patent Pending) are designed by women who are sensitive to the needs of those undergoing cosmetic or reconstructive surgery. The growing trend in this type of surgery is the “Mommy Makeover,” a treatment that helps restore a woman’s pre-childbirth body.
The number of women electing to get Mommy Makeover procedures is on the rise, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). Women had nearly 161,948 tummy tucks in 2022, an increase of 37% over 2019. Breast lifts and breast augmentations are also increasing.
Often, a Mommy Makeover involves more than one type of surgery — breast, abdominal, gluteal – making post-surgical comfort the highest priority.
A recent test customer wore the new garment after having a tummy tuck and, had this to say:
“This garment made all the difference during my recovery. Nothing compares. I was able to get back to my daily activities because this garment made me feel like it was holding me together. I wore this garment with the bra for a year and it was very comfortable. I love it and, it’s sexy!”
ABOUT Design Veronique - Design Veronique® is the global leader in Medical Compression Garment design and manufacturing. With over 30 years’ experience developing patented, FDA registered products, Design Veronique’s line of compression garments includes more than 100 styles, the most comprehensive range of medical compression wear available worldwide.Design Veronique products are designed, manufactured, and distributed from the company’s headquarters in Richmond, CA.

Au Pair USA, a pioneering au pair program, continues to promote cultural understanding and community engagement through volunteerism. With a rich history of connecting American families and international au pairs, Au Pair USA has always believed in the transformative power of cultural exchange. That’s why the company is so proud to shine a light on the active involvement of its au pairs in volunteering locally and the reason why it is committed to offering diverse volunteer opportunities within each community.
Over the last 30 years, Au Pair USA by InterExchange has witnessed the incredible power of cultural exchange not only in private — in the American homes in which the au pairs live — but also publicly, in communities all across the USA. Cultural exchange is a diverse, two-way street. It introduces and exposes children to a bigger world; one in which different languages and traditions are spoken and practiced while at the same time broadening the au pairs' knowledge and understanding of the local community.
Uta and Paul Christianson are the founders of InterExchange, Au Pair USA’s parent organization. Long ago, they recognized that au pair programs could offer young people an opportunity to travel, immerse themselves in new cultures, and enhance their language skills. At the same time, they understood the lasting impact that exposure to new cultures and languages could have on the young children the au pairs cared for. In over three decades, that’s translated into more than 20,000 au pair alumni, representing 40 countries worldwide, and over 60,000 American children who were introduced to cultures and languages from around the world.
However, when you take into account Au Pair USA’s commitment to volunteerism, the number of people impacted by the program has been even greater.
Each year, the program’s au pairs have the opportunity to participate in rewarding volunteer opportunities. For example, InterExchange au pairs volunteer in the annual TCS New York City Marathon. There, one au pair even served as a Spanish medical translator for the athletes. Additionally, at a recent Exchange Day celebration, au pairs volunteered with God’s Love We Deliver to help prepare meals for people in need.
Even after three decades, Au Pair USA's commitment to cultural exchange, volunteerism, and enriching the lives of au pairs, host families, and the communities in which they live remains unwavering as the organization continues to pursue its mission: "Enable global experiences both at home and abroad. Create global connectivity among travelers and hosts. Encourage global responsibility among our community toward a shared, better future."
To learn more about how to share in the cultural exchange, either as an au pair or American host family, visit our website for more information.
About Au Pair USA by InterExchange: Au Pair USA, established in 1989, is a leading cultural exchange program that connects American families with international au pairs. As one of the first U.S. Department of State-designated sponsors and a founding member of the International Au Pair Association (IAPA), Au Pair USA is committed to fostering cultural understanding and enriching the lives of host families and au pairs alike. Au Pair USA provides a platform for young adults from around the world to experience life in the United States while offering American host families reliable and flexible childcare solutions.

SCD is a genetically inherited red blood cell disorder. According to the Centers for Disease Control, SCD disproportionately affects Black or African American and Hispanic Americans in the United States.
