MARENA SFBHS Women's Girdle High Back Short - Post-Surgery Shapewear Support, Beige, X-Small

LOVE IT! After surgery I was swollen and the girdle they gave me at the doctor's office was a wrap with boning that was actually hurting me. After searching and reading reading reviews I went with this one and I am SO happy I did. The material is SOFT, other girdles say they are "breathable" but that means their fabric is meshy and hard on wounds. This fabric feels nice on my swollen post surgery tender skin. It doesn't have seems on the sides like the rest, this is a HUGE plus, it is super comfy. I wanted it tight so I followed the reviews advice and got an XS, I should have probably been fine with a small, but I was barely able to close it due to its stretchy fabric. But I like that I will be able to continue use it as the swelling goes down. I am 5f 3in and the leg ends right above my knee which is great because it does not show a mid leg cut in leggings or skinny jeans. It arrived within 3 days, way faster than expected. My only complaint is the straps, they are adjustable (with a bra-like feature which is a great feature for tall people) but the adjustable thing hurts a bit the area next next to my arm pit. I am not tall and I am using the straps in the largest setting, so I think they got that part wrong. I would have preferred for the straps to not be adjustable and be made of the same soft fabric the rest of the garment has. I also wish the crotch was a little higher, it is kind of low and bothers me a tiny bit when I sit down. However for Amazon and the US, I don't think you will find a better girdle than this. I went to a local store and bought a different brand that I cannot stand (at least yet), it was more expensive and had seems on the sides, its "breathable" fabric did not feel good on my tender skin.

I was given 1 of these post-op liposuction and bought 2 more so I wouldn’t have to wash them daily. They do what they’re supposed to do (excellent support/compression) and they’re comfortable everywhere except where the straps rub against my armpits. I tried using an anti-chafing balm but it didn’t help. Wearing these 23 hours a day is torture. The straps can hook/unhook so when I’m just sitting on the couch I unhook them to give my skin a break. I have a long torso and I think if there was another 2 inches of strap it wouldn’t so bad. They’re comfortable everywhere else though and pretty easy to get on and off.

This is my second compression garment from this brand, my first was the same style in black and sized small. I'm about a month post smart lipo, due to swelling I purchased the small originally. I was quickly able to use the tightest hooks, even with lipo foam. (In my opinion these garments do run a little big) I was a little hesitant to purchase the XS, that's a lot of money to waste and a potential hit to my self esteem. I received the XS today and I'm pleased with it. It's tight but isn't that the point?.

I got my liposuction done in Mexico and they gave me this garment I looked the name up and bought this one to have a second pair. It must fit tight so you can get a small waist. And for best results keep wearing for 3 months non stop after another 3 months only during the day. I love it and its good very tight

This is the best compression garment for after surgery. Comfortable and supportive
