At what point did y'all start wearing girdles? Or whatever you call them and do they help the extra skin permanently?

I wore a pair of Spanx the other day. I am seven weeks post op. Since they were my pair from pre-surgery, they were pretty comfortable.

I would like to know what are the options available for this type of garment? I know there are Spanx but not sure of other options for this type of situation...

I would love to hear others recommendations.

Any department store will have a large selection of body shapers. You can wear a body shaping tank that is a simple camisole type thing to high compression-squeeze you & contort you full on body suits. Even Target sells the simple kinds.

I wear a Flexees brand waist cincher/girdle daily. Frankly, if I am wearing a bra.... I wear a girdle. Don't leave the house w/o it. It's comfy but also stops the bulging and the muffin top effect. I've worn these garments for 9 years and only took a week break post-op

I carry most of my weight in the belly and have worn the girdle to help keep it sucked in and tucked up so it doesn't hang and cause a permanent "apron". I'm 1/2 way to goal and think that there is a good chance for it to shrink to normal.
