Question:
Has Anyone Ever Had Body Wraps Post-Op to Help Skin Firmness?

I was wondering if anyone has any info about using body wraps post-op. I had one last summer, and found it to help firm up my skin a bit. I'm having surgery in June, and was wondering if 1) it's safe post-op, 2) anyone has used them post-op, 3) what your results were. A friend had recommended them to me, after she lost 20 lbs, and felt it had helped a great deal. Any and all responses or questions welcome! Thanks!    — Karen B. (posted on April 3, 2002)

A couple of my family memebers have done body wraps after WLS and they loved it, It helped them get a few inches off. But you should check with your surgeon to see if he thinks it's safe to do, I'm sure it is. Good luck

Thank you Jordyn! If anyone has any recommendations about places to go for wraps in the Chicagoland area, I'd love to hear about it, too. (I had mine done out-of-state while on vacation.) Thanks!
