trouble finding compression garments to fit properly



Recommended Posts

Hello all , im 4 weeks post op of Tummy Tuck and breast lift and ive been wearing the binder from the hospital. My doc just recently took my drains out and told me to start wearing Spanx along with the binder. Well ive tried 4 kinds now and spent a fortune and cannot get one to fit properly.. either the legs cut cirulation off or hurts my ribs.. Anyway i have another kind coming in the mail monday. a high top brief so any suggestions. Do you think this one is good for tummy tuck healing? thanks. I think im just proportioned different...:) I just dont wanna mess up my results. Im worried i wont find a good one... Thanks all.

Have you tried Design Veronique - I hafta admit the one I am in now - Does try to cut my ''underparticles'' (lol) up if it decides to not wit right but they do many types of fitting (name of which i forget right now) and I have used their compression garments for twoops now and they are great quality and as soon as I managed to get mine onn (the weird elasticated binder from the hosp just allowed me to swell outside it - so I doubled up to ''decompress'' myself and as soon as I was - I put it on and blisssssssssssss - Its like a second skin.

Hope you find one to fit you right.

Have you tried a Body Magic? They are medical grade and a lot of folks say they work wonderfully. I wear mine all the time and it has done wonders in shaping my body - even without surgery. (my website is www.ardysslife.com/figuresforfamilies - but if you are interested PM me and I can give you the wholesale prices as those on the website are retail - I would be happy to help folks get them at wholesale prices as I am not in the company to make millions)

I actually hated the Spanx! I also wasted a lot of money on them! They didn't give my mons any compression and they were not comfortable with their crotchless area. I love the Marena compression garments. They have the first phase and the second phase garments. The price isn't bad for what you get and I love them! They are easy to get on too! www.marenagroup.com and use the code word "skinny" for a discount. (I hope that still works!)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
