Hi Ladies,
 I'm about to order my garments for my full thigh lift on 6/1. I am planning on ordering from Marena but I'm confused about sizing. This is the garment I'm purchasing per my doctor's suggestion marenagroup.com/garmentstore/product/tabid/199/p-138-1st-sta ge-girdle-with-medium-legs-and-separating-zippers.aspx In the garments I'm wearing now (for lbl)  I had to buy a small. I bought some in medium when a small was not available and they fit well but could be a little tighter. However when I did the sizing calculator on Marena's site it says I should get a large. I'm confused as to what size to order. And if you get the wrong size, can you exchange it for the correct one? Any help you can offer is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I always find it best to call the manufacturer....give them your measurements and they can advice you on the best size to order. Most of them will let you exchange it but call to double check.

That's what I used. The large was fine for me right after surgery but then got loose after the swelling went away. I ordered a second one from them and it wasn't quite what I thought I'd like so they let me exchange it for another one and in a smaller size. I just got it and I love it. You shouldn't have any problems.

I bought a M and a L and the L fit me best and that is what their calculations said for me to get. I am 5'5.5" and 150 lbs if that helps. I'd get what their measurments say to get, it was right on for me.

Marena has a 30 day exchange return,  when I ordered my garment for my  TT & thight lift I ordered one to the knee & 1 mid calf and I ordered a medium cause it should be a little on the tight side if it is loose it is doing no good. I weighed at that time 170, I didnt order that one I had the one with the straps that went over your shoulder and they were crotchless and closed with hook n eye from the front, the ones with the straps are nice cause they dont roll down and it is so comfortable I have only used Marena garments for all my surgeries

Thank you, wonderful OH Ladies! Your advice is priceless. I'm so greatful for all of you! I had heard you all talking about how pleased you are with your Marena garments, that is why I decided to go with them. Thanks again and have a blessed weekend.

Marena has a good return policy HOWEVER if you ever order from Design Veronique they have a horrible return policy and I had to fight with them over and over again to get my money back after I returned a brachio garment - they were very ugly about it!
