I’m not going to lie. They are HELL ON EARTH! The first day is especially bad. When you leave the doctor’s office, the nurse helps you get into them. However, once you get home – you’re all on your own unless you have someone to help! Which I’m not going to lie, you’re going to need help. I provided pictures below of how incredibly S E X Y these will make you look :)
The Body Garment
- It’s the lesser of the two evils. The first two days, while swollen, it’s extremely tight. They tell you to pull up your skin every time you lay down to help prevent lines. The body garment had to be worn for three weeks. The first day that I took the garment off, I felt like a giggly fat girl. The massage woman told me that the feeling was due to the tissue not being attached to the skin yet. By the end of the fourth week, the feeling was getting less and less odd.
The Arms Garment
- This is a horribly painful garment to put on. Every time I put it on, I felt like it was pinching my skin. If you didn’t put it on correctly, it would feel twisted and you couldn’t exactly pull it straight. I felt like it was suffocating me at times. The garment made me feel like I was overheated unless I had minimal clothing on. The garment is ¾ length sleeves so it’s not easy to find something you can wear over it to go out in other than a sweater. Needless to say, I didn’t go out much. Thank God this garment only had to be worn for two weeks. It was an annoying two weeks though.
