LBL compression garmet -- recommendations please

I need to get another compression garment and hoping for suggestions from the folks here.  The one I'm in now is too big and quite the contraption.   Probably need a stage 2 garment given I'll start using it around week 3.

Which brands are most comfortable?  Do you wear your binder over the garment (the one I have now has the binder sewn into the gament) or will the stage 2 garment be enough to keep the abdominal swelling down?

Any recommendations would be appreciated,

Michelle

Dr Sauceda gives us 2 sets of compression garments, and we are told to wear them for 6 weeks.  I still wear mine at night, and it is very comfortable.  I had a lower body lift, lipo with fat grafting to my butt, and small/medial thigh lift.  Here is the link...

Hope that helps!

I've got a rather large collection of garments...LOL!

This is a comfortable one......I've worn this one designveronique.com/cgi-bin/ic/dv2/855
They also have one that ends above the knee.

This is another good brand..... marenagroup.com/store/entity/tabid/198/c-2-womens-body-suits .aspx

FYI - for a while I did wear the binder over my compression garment for extra compression on my tummy.....I don't anymore.

I wore the Marena brand through all my surgeries.  It was the brand that my PS gave me pre-op and I bought more both through them and online.  I did purchase one of the Design Veronique.. but found it just didn't fit me as well.

Ruth and Beth,

Thanks for your replies/advice.  I think I'll go with the Marena brand.  My doc uses a atage 1 heavy duty medical brand but it's too big for me and just uncomfortable.

I ordered a second one that was exactly like the one Dr. Agha gave me, but I don't find it uncomfortable at all.

How are you feeling after your LBL? Are you happy with your results so far?
