Which Brand of Compression Garments did you use after Plastic Surgery?



Recommended Posts

All plastic surgery patients are required to use compression garments after surgery. Which brand did you use? We're looking at carrying compression garments from Marena in the BariatricPal Store. I was wondering if there were any alternative or better options.

They're a bit pricey but looks like really good quality! I reached out to them and we're discussing carrying their line.

Alex, do you think you'll carry binders for after wls? I understand it can help in the early stages.

I wasn't aware that binders were used often. Any idea what the "best" binder is? I am going to research this a bit more, thanks!

Yes I looked at this site as well and agree. To pricey for me. I will be needing sleeve compression when I have my arm surgery in early 2018.

Yes they are but they are very well made - Do not lose shape or anything. And very comfortable if you need to wear them 24/7

After getting the first one - It was so good I got one from them for every surgery - It made me feel so protected, I would never use another brand to be honest - Yes they may cost more - But I believe the people who designed them really thought about getting in and out of them after a surgery etc.

I have had quite a few of these and never had a problem with them.

One of my surgeries my Veronique garment had not turned up at the hospital, I was given some binder thing. Was so uncomfortable - And I swelled more than with these on -I could not wait until this was found and I could get back into the Veronique item that was just fantastic. I had no swelling problems at all in these. Would always rate them 10/10

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
