Female Body Shaping Garments by Design Veronique

Post Operative Compression Garments can, without surgery, powerfully shape the female body supporting sagging loose tissues and compressing distortions. Targeted compression makes this after surgery recovery clothing a major shaping tool. Not all shaping clothing is made alike. These Shaper Garments exert much more stabilizing force and contour than lighter athletic compression or store bought girdles.

Female Body Shaper Garments are not an alternative to losing weight nor do they have the advantages of Body Shaping Plastic Surgery for women. However, they can lower emotional distress and embarrassment during weight loss or until tissues tighten after pregnancy.

Dr. Bermant sees many women hoping for a "quick fix" plastic surgery option instead of weight loss. Losing weight is a coarse tool, you cannot pick where the weight comes from. Plastic Surgery is much better used as a refinement tool after weight loss. Significant weight loss after surgery can result in renewed sagging, drooping, and redundant tissues. Although revision surgery sometimes is an option, a better choice typically is to first lose weight to a comfortable body fat, then let the skin adjust and shrink before surgery.

While going through weight loss and skin adjustment after pregnancy, compression body shaping garments help define a woman's contour under clothing. Stabilizing loose redundant tissue improves the look of the body in motion of an active new mother. Since these garments were designed for scar improvement after surgery, there is also a theoretical advantage of tissue evolving under pressure may shrink better.

Dr. Bermant and his staff have seen remarkable expressions of relief when patients try on these Body Shaping Garments or Bras for the first time. There is often a smile and a look of relaxation as they gaze at the change in contour and difference in how tissues that bounced that are now much more restrained. Those that have tried athletic support garments or standard store compression clothing have voiced that there was no comparison.
