For the past 2 years I have been wearing a bodybugg high up on my left arm.Its the first thing I do in the morning,put the bugg on.

The strap is about 2 inches wide and fastens with velcro.It fits tightly around my arm.

Since being sleeved I have noticed hat my left arm has a lot less hanging skin,especially high up on my arm...where the bugg sits.My right arm is 2 inches wider and has a lot more lose skin.

I thought I was nuts but it is becoming more noticable now that I am a lot lighter.

My question is this.Could serious compression garments have helped the skin to not be as lose as it is now?

I have decided to go and buy some 4 inch elastic band and sow velcro onto it.I will wear it every day from now on like I do the bugg.

Does anyone know if someone has tried compression from the beginning?

Can it be I've always had one much fatter arm than the other..lol?

compression garments are not going to help that much, it just isn't how the skin is made...

It cannot be stressed enough how Water, a rounded, healty diet and light, repetitive, daily toning of the entire body helps the most. Genetics will also play into this, some people are not going to recover as much.

I am trying to imagine what you are describing to use to hide your arms...and I must say it sounds really uncomfy!!!

No man,not to hide my arms,to shrink them...lol.I know the skin story and collagen ect ect. But my arms are telling a different story...lol

I will try to post pictures of the arms tomorrow then you can judge for yourself.It is really quite noticable but then I have worn the bugg for two years now.

And having the strap around your arm isnt uncomfortable at all.If I dont have my bugg on I feel somwthing is missing.

I have been told by more than one Dr that compression will help. What it helps the most is compressing the fat. My Dr. had me use a girdle... that's what we called them way back then... after having my children. I did lose the tummy fat and extra skin really fast. So I am not so sure using compression does not help. I think it does.

I wear compression stockings on my legs n can see a difference.

What is the bugg worn on your arm for?

I have been told that part of the reason skin hangs is because the it naturally pulls away with with gravity walking and exercise as we lose weight.. Compression stockings will help your skin to stay more intact and less subject to gravity,bounce etc.
