MARENASFBHS2 Women’s Girdle with High Back, No Closures, Short-Length - Post-surgical Shapewear Support

I must say I did read the reviews for this item and other competitors. I finally narrowed it down to Marena Recovery. When I searched for a compression garment online I did run into Marena's website. I got a better view of the product. I really needed this garment asap so I went back to Amazon and searched for the exact product number as on their website-Amazon had it. The price was the same. I did need this within a couple of days so I did order from Amazon the SFBHS2, Short Leg No Closures, and glad I did. I received it within two days. The garment my dr gave was super uncomfortable and imprinted my skin, so while I waited for this one I used my high waisted high quality leggings. Once I received it, I did inspect it to make sure it was brand new, indeed it was. I ordered a Small, I do wear small in clothes. I wasn't sure if my measurements would be equal to my swollen belly. However, I took a chance and it was perfect. At this point I don't think I'll need to go down to the XS in a few weeks because it's nice and snug but we'll see. The key is knowing how to put it on. It may sound pretty straight forward but remember you have a swollen abdomen, tender, and needs healing. So that's where you want to put it on correctly. At first, it may seem the waist is small, but once you get above that it's all good. The thigh area is very comfortable; impressive. The straps were perfect as I am 5'3. I did adjust to longest length. Garment is very smooth, absolutely comfortable, evenly compresses your body without imprinting into your skin like the drs one. Material is soft and stretches, and breathable. The crotch area is pretty wide to pee, I personally will remove garment for the other use of the bathroom so at least you don't have to worry about wetting your garment in trying to remove it or unbuckle it. There are no clips, no zippers, you pull up the garment to put it on and pull it down to remove it. Do your research, everybody's body is shaped differently, and do go by the measurements. My waist is 26, rather than going with a XS because it ends with wait 26 I went with the Small starting at waist 26 to be on the safe side. Highly recommend it!! all around great service and great product.

I needed medium compression garments following my breast cancer reconstruction surgery and this product worked perfectly for that. I ordered a second one shortly after I received this one. The garment was as comfortable as any full compression garment could be. I had great concerns regarding using the restroom wearing this garment but never had any issues or problems. My only thought was that the company could maybe provide more instruction on how to easily put the garment on. It took a couple of times to get it on correctly and that caused some pain issues, but after that I was able to get it on easier.

Prior to purchasing I read a lot of reviews commenting that the straps are too short but I bought anyway to try it for myself since I like the reviews about the material. I agree, the straps are too short especially if you are tall like me 5’9, but I came up with a simple solution. I just borrowed a pair of bra straps from one of my convertible bras and added it to the garments straps as an extension. It looks a little weird but I’m sure if you play with it you can make it look nice but so far I’m only using this around the house since I’m only 2 days post op.I also recommend sizing down! According to the size chart I should’ve purchased a XXL but I bought a large instead and I think it fits perfect, with the exception of the short straps, but I fixed that as explained above. For reference I’m 5’9 and weight 180, average build.The garment is very soft material and I love how it feels on my skin. Also has good compression without feeling suffocating. I ordered a medium also to wear when the swelling goes down. Initially I was worried that the straps on the medium would be even shorter until I thought of a way to extend them, so not concerned about that anymore. Hope this helps solve the short strap problem for some of you. Would’ve gave it 5 stars if straps were longer. Despite the short straps I still think it’s worth the price because of the quality, material and compression. And I’m worth it haha. Just size down!!

I love that it feels like a second skin and the fabric is so soft that it does not hurt my scars.

I've had this garment for less than 2 months and it is tearing at the shoulder. I contacted the seller and they said it's past 30 days and basically too bad! Don't purchase from this seller or this garment! $90+ and it's tearing! Don't waster your money or buy from this seller as they could care less about quality or customer service!

This is one of the best and most comfortable faja. I’m 8 weeks post op (tummy tuck) I wear my faja everywhere I go. The compression is great! Well recommended.

Hi! Had air sculpt lipo and a tiny tummy tuck and I am loving this garment. I wanted one i could wear while washing my other compression suit. It fits great, i like that its a pull on w no hooks and crotch area is comfy and large enough to.. really aim. I am 2 weeka post op, feeling great and actually had sex with it on (i mean why not) the other day. Not the best. Maybe just skip it (the garment, not the sex) for 30 mins. The only not great thing is like all compression graments I am finding, super tight straps that dig into your arm pits. I just stuff little diapers or maxi pads netween straps and skin and go about my day :)
