ChongErfei 3 in 1 Postpartum Support - Recovery Belly/waist/pelvis Belt Shapewear Slimming Girdle, Beige, L/One Size For Posture Correction

I needed compression on my abdominal area after abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck as it's also known. I am currently in my third week post operation, and have been wearing this belt for a few days.This is a review for: "2 in 1 Postpartum Support Recovery Belly Wrap Waist/Pelvis Belt Body Shaper Postnatal Shapewear,One Size." I am currently a size 6/8 dress, 5'6", 150-ish, a couple days post surgery I measured my waist at 33 inch. This fits well.The surgeon sends you home in a compression garment that holds you in well, but within a week, that garment starts rolling down at the top and up at the bottom, especially as you sleep or move around. I found myself in a constant struggle to keep it in place, which defeats the purpose.Frustrated, I went online and began searching for something sturdier and longer lasting, given that I'll need to continue wearing compression wear for several weeks to months. I looked at many options online and on Amazon. I finally decided to give this one a try. The price I paid was $22, and the reviews were good. I also like that this is intended for medical application - post partum. I figured it could work similarly for those who are post tummy tuck, and I was right.This garment comes in two pieces, and you wrap it around yourself to the desired tightness. It attaches by velcro. The larger piece I use on the top of my abdomen just under the breast area and it reaches just below my belly button. Depending on my mood, I am able to pull this sucker as tight as I want, or just tight enough to achieve the prescribed post surgical purpose. And there is so much support! I love it. I then wrap the second smaller piece around the little pooch of my tummy on and under the belly button to just above the pubic area. Again, I can stretch it as tightly as I want. With the two pieces, I am now compressed from just under my boob line (that's a medical term, by the way), to right above my pubic area. On me, there is even a bit of overlap between the two pieces.This belt is world's better than the one provided by my plastic surgeon which stopped being truly functional after about a week and which cost me $48 -- more than double what I paid for this item, which is much higher quality. In fact, I plan on wearing this belt to my next follow up appointment to show my doctor an alternative that he might want to consider using or recommending for his patients after the garment he provides begins to fail. My only regret is that I did not research this before surgery and have it at home, ready to go when it was time to transition out of the quickly-worn-out-and-entirely-too-expensive-white-basic-belt routinely used by most plastic surgeons.I have only been wearing this a few days, so I can't comment on it's longevity, but it seems like it'll last a while, even with months of 24/7 wear. We shall see, but at this price point, even if it were to wear out after a month or two of wear and washing, I would buy another as I intend to continue wearing compression garments for several months to ensure the best possible results of my very expensive procedure.My boyfriend tells me this doesn't add bulk under my clothes. I wore a dress that used to be form fitting before my surgery, and he was impressed that he couldn't even tell I was wearing the belt under my dress. Even so, I'm experimenting with other compression belts for when I have to return to work and wear business suit attire. I haven't tried this under my work clothes yet, but in these hot, muggy, oppressively humid Florida streets, I can tell you that too many layers of clothing can be a bad thing. Still, even if I'm not using this under my lined suits during the work day, I'll be wearing it at home, to sleep, and running errands. It's very comfortable and pulls me in so tight I haven't been able to finish my dinner the last two nights. And I like that.Don't be like me and spend hours reading reviews and scrolling through endless options. If you're in need of abdominal compression, just buy this. Just do it. The time I spent researching before buying this could have been spent on much better activities like Netflixing, petting my cat, or aggravating my kid for my personal amusement.

I bought this belly band for postpartum use. It provides great support to my body and feels really comfortable. The material is well-made. This band has wide range of length therefore it can be used for a long time during the recovery.

I bought this because I liked that it comes in 3 pieces. If I don’t want to wear one piece, the choice is mine.I have a couple herniated disc’s in my lower back and was looking for support to fix my posture. This has helped me tremendously with both my posture and my back not hurting. The stretchy straps allow you to loosen or tighten the belts in any one of the 3 different pieces. It even has an extra layer of support that you can stretch to your fitting over the bands.Sometimes at night I need more stability with my sleeping habits so I stretch the added support belt tighter. That’s one benefit of having 3 pieces, you can wear at different times.I went off my measurements and the chart said I needed a large, so I got the large. What I don’t like is when I’m sitting, the waist band rolls up at the bottom. I’m not sure if I may have the band too tight when sitting, however I went off their chart size. Another thing, when reading the directions I was very confused due to the waist and tummy band kinda look the same. It wasn’t till I realized that each piece had a tag attached to it saying which piece it was. So I recommend while navigating the instructions first find the name tag attached to each piece telling you what section it is. If the instructions were clearer and the bottom waist band wouldn’t roll up, this would get a 5 star review from me.

Post-partum, pre-surgery, post-surgery, back support, you name it, I would choose this binder ten times over! I've had to wear a binder on and off for twenty years for various health conditions. This is the best one I've found in terms of support and adjustability. Admittedly, using it the first couple of times was a little complicated because it has three separate parts, but it's the three separate parts that make it so adjustable so you can get each part the right size. Each part is labeled so you put them on in the right locations. You can close it tightly without help from another person, although the first time or two around a second person helps to figure it out.I'm supposed to wear it very, very tightly this time around for abdominal and back support and compression in preparation for surgery, and I can get it to fit perfectly.You can also skip the top or the bottom section depending on your needs. It's so much better than a binder with one big piece of velcro that somehow has to fit from lower abdomen to lower chest when people have all different sorts of proportions. It's always too loose somewhere in those cases, and many really require a second person to get it anywhere near tight enough for anyone's use. It's more height-adjustable than the usual ones because the sections can overlap to whatever degree fits one's body. It's in the same price range as other binders that do not work nearly as well. I'm on the shorter side (5'2") with long legs but a short torso, and I am relatively thin (~115 lbs.), and the women's small/medium works for me. i could easily weigh 25 lbs less or 35 lbs more, and I know this one would still fit because it has long stretches of velcro fit many people. My regular clothes fit over it.I would see the outline of it if I wore a tight top over it, but I think that's inevitable.
