I came across this Web site that offers many different kinds of compression garments and all I can think about are those rubber pads you wound around your abdomen a friend once convinced me into buying. She said it facilitates sweating around the tummy area and it’s supposed to aid in losing inches off your waist. I tried it and used it while exercising at home but I really couldn’t feel the difference it makes. My friend even recommended keeping it on while sleeping but it’s too hot on the skin and frankly it makes it hard to breathe.      

Some compression garments are actually used for medicinal purposes. They provide support for people with poor circulation,for example, such garments worn on the legs can help prevent deep vein thrombosis. On the other hand, there are compression garments whose main function is to aid in the recovery of surgical patients, particularly those who had some form of plastic surgery. Examples of such are special socks, pantyhose, body suits, vests, girdles,or sleeves, which are used depending on the specific patient’s needs. In people who had undergone plastic surgery, these aids help loose skin mold firmly against the body so the skin is more likely to heal without sagging. Surgical compression garments squeeze the body’s fluids back toward deeper tissues, reducing swelling in the affected areas; they also improve blood circulation, minimizes swelling after the procedure, flushes the body out of harmful fluids, expedites the healing process, and allows the patient to recover sooner. Sounds imperative to me.
