You’ve just bought a new jumpsuit or corset, and you’re wondering how to put them on without struggling? Don’t panic! Our girdles are very effective, but they can be a little difficult to adjust at first. This is perfectly normal, especially if you’re wearing something new. Our high-quality fabrics are designed to offer optimum support, but they can take a little patience to get into place. So here are our tips to make putting them on a breeze!
A quick reminder: if you have opted for a post-operative suit, we recommend that you wear it day and night for at least 3 months after the operation. If you can, extend its use for a further 3 months, at least during the day or at night. For optimum effect, you should also wear a compression plate underneath the suit to limit oedema, reattach the skin to the muscles, and prevent creases from forming.
If you want a little more compression, you can start wearing a corset from the first month post-op. This corset is worn over the wetsuit and compression plate, but only during the day.
2. Tie it on:
1. Position it well: Place your corset high up in the back, and just below the bust. You may notice a gap of about 10 cm between the two sides – this is perfectly normal.
Tips for the corset: The corset should be worn all day, ideally 8 hours or more if you have a long day. Take it off at night, and avoid bending over or making movements that strain your abdominal muscles, such as sit-ups. To be comfortable, remember to keep your posture upright, especially when sitting.
By following these simple steps, you’ll look and feel your best all day long!
