Where can I buy ....
Mine were part of my surgical package, so double check with the surgeon that this isn't so for you too. Then google "marena", as that is the brand name of my garments. They are well made, easy to get in and out of, and have an open bottom for using the bathroom.

There area few places you can get garments. I've used the ones on marenagroup.com and contourmd.com and was pleased with both.

Hi! I finally got to get rid of my old binder. My doctor told me to just go to Walmart and get a "Cupid" garment. It's like a girdle. I think I only paid $14 for it. Anyway, thats what my doc recommended. It comes up to around under my boobs and down the thighs a little way. They call them cupid garments at the office, coz thats the brand name. They said to get one that fits me snug. Hope that helps!
I love my garments from Marena!
If you use the code word "skinny" you will get a pretty hefty discount.
I am over 5 months out and still wear my stage 2 garments for workingout and on my 12 hour shifts - IF I don't, I swell a lot.
I think a good compression garment is worth the price - I have tried spanx and others but I keep going back to my Marena. It makes a big difference in how much I swell!

I had my LBL with vertical abdominoplasty and buttock autoaugmentation using flap grafts almost 4 years ago. Rainey's garments were comfortable. I wore the stage 2 for a long time and it was worth the investment.
Back in the day, I would only private message this company because their website said they only distributed to surgeons, though I was able to order one. Several people I sent the information to was also able to order, so I assume it is not, or at least no longer, a restriction.
