I wasn't sure where to ask this question so I thought I should start in the general discussion forum.. So since compression garments are heavily used when lipo suction (and other weightloss plastics) is/are done, would they help with our type of weight loss? I have been looking into some to wear during my "honeymoon" phase to hopefully help prevent or lessen sagging skin. Has anyone tried it?

I asked the same thing in one of my blog posts. The answers were varied. Same when you do a search. Some of the Sleevers were convinced they'd had better results wearing them while others said they didn't see any difference. Personally, I plan to wear one post-op. My friend who had RnY did and she felt it helped.

You are so right, I can't seem to find a concrete answer...I think I am going to wear one as well. I am sure it won't make it any worst!

I wear one currently, but I had to wait until things were not so inflamed on the inside, because every time I put one on it gave me indigestion LOL I think it was because it was pressing in on everything, now it doesn't bother me I'm 7 weeks now. Just make sure your incisions are completely healed on the outside before you try one.
