Are compression tank tops or body shapers recommended for post op healing?

Ooooh that's a good idea! I wonder if they are too!

im seven weeks out. i was told that its important to let the insicions "breathe." No ointments, lotions or dressings. i felt best when they were with non tight clothing over them.

Thank you! I've read where some people felt better with compression t-shirts. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

I wear a compression tank and it has helped my abdominal pain. I'm nervous to go without it because the pain was so bad. My incisions seem fine.

Glad to hear it! :-) I picked up a few today. I'll post my update on what I think about it, soon.
