Compression Garments



Recommended Posts

I ordered a body magic today an was wondering what other people use and if you think it helps with any skin issues long term...to hear some ppl tell it, it helps pull the skin in some ..?

I lost 156 lbs.

I had an extended Tummy Tuck and had 16 lbs of skin removed and 4 lbs of skin removed from each "manboobie".

I saw 4 plastic surgeons before I picked my doctor and was told the same thing from all the doctors that compression garments are not a long-term solution and that they can cause circulations issues and should not be worn every day.

Following my tummy tuck I had to wear a binder (girdle) for 3 months and I got to take it off 2 hours a day.

Having the extra skin removed made a huge difference.
