I used Retouch silicone sheets. They were comfortable and I was very pleased with the results.

I use GELZONE. It also works as compression for my lower abdomen and hips to flatten out my scar from my LBL. I can wrap it all the way around and pull it tight and fasten it with the Velcro tabs. My scar I flat and blending in nicely with my skin tone. I highly recommend this product.

I am sorry I did not reply sooner.

I bought the GELZONE Wrap at www.gelzone.com

It is 6X48 inch streach support and is perfect for Tummy Tucks or Lower Body Lifts. I started wearing mine GELZONE Wrap 10 days after my LBL. (I was allergic to the surgical tape)

It provides compression and silicone at the same time. I paid $75.00.

I tried the small strips, but they did not work for me. With the GELZONE, I was even able to cut it and make it work for my breast lift scars too. I hand wash. Had my LBL 14 weeks ago, and still wear it 24/7. It is very very comfortable.

I am glad you like it. I have been using mine since June. I will be ordering another Gelzone soon. I am surprised it lasted me this long. It had really helped me with my swelling too, especially when I pull it tight and wrap it all the way around. It may take some getting use to for some people, but well worth it when you look at your scar and see how flat an smooth it becomes. As a bonus, it holds my tummy in tighter and makes me eat less. :-)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
