Elasto-Fit Adjustable Breast and Chest Compression Wrap – Premium Support and Comfort for Post-Surgical Recovery. L0220 (Large)

I must’ve ordered a size 2 large because this is very very long. I recently had a bilateral mastectomy and needed something to bind my chest during the recovery process. Although this was much longer than I expected, I was able to fold part of it in still be able to adjust it myself. This is so much more comfortable than a 6 inch ace bandage! The ace will roll up almost immediately and become a tourniquet.And I am able to put it on and take it off by myself. This is a huge plus because during recovery, one’s comfort level shifts throughout the day.I didn’t want to spend a lot on a compression garment but right now the chest compression is necessary and I’m so thankful to have finally found something that I could use independently.I have returned no less than seven items that were intended for chest compression, but weren’t suitable for a variety of reasons. Several are currently in my car waiting to drop off at UPS.My husband and sons have tried different ways of wrapping of the Ace bandage, but still no comfort long-term throughout the day.This binder is absolutely perfect. The velcro is very strong and there is some “pulling” of the fabric but who cares.I have only worn this over very thin tank tops because it seems like it may be scratchy against the surgical wounds. But even wearing it in Florida over clothing I have not found it too hot. I may cut off the excess length at some point, but right now it adds an extra layer of compression and protection.If you are having a bilateral mastectomy, this is the only product I would recommend. I am currently 4 weeks post op and have worn this for about a week. I am headed to UPS today to return the other items I couldn’t tolerate for more than an hour at most.We have been struggling along with the ACE s that were recommended by the surgeon. I am printing off the product description for this item and taking it to her office when I follow up this afternoon. It is the only product she should be recommending, in my opinion.Best wishes

Had a unilateral mastectomy last September. This was essential for a while as I healed. It's still here in case I need it for the future. Easy to use. Tight but comfortable.

Worked well following mastectomy for required compression. You might need to tuck a cotton pad under the Velcro to protect skin.

You'd think that someone that wears a size xl would need the large size of this product. No! Not only is it too large to do any good or get it wrapped around yourself to get it tight enough the quality of the product is very low. The band has the loop side of velcro on one end and it clings to the product anywhere it touches. The only thing this product is good at is clinging to itself. You can't try putting this on by yourself without the end flap laying over and clinging to itself. There's no way to hold the binder in place, unhook the end from itself then fasten it where you want it.I think even with another person helping it would not have the strength to bind the breasts as you might desire.I recommend you give this one a hard pass and save yourself some money and frustration.

I bought this to use after breast reduction surgery. It has great stretch to provide binding. However, it is quite long and very difficult to wrap with even pressure. The velcro clings almost too well. It required a two handed grip to pull apart. After surgery you cannot pull safely so I had to get help. It took two pairs of hands to protect the surgery site from the pressure and manipulation necessary to take it off. Every time the Velcro is taken off it leaves lots of fuzz on the wrap. If you are not using this after surgery or sue to pain it might be good.

Worked well to support my fractured ribs.

After masectomy used this wrap. Very comfortable. I dealt with this seller and tgey are good customer service fast shipping.

And, as others have mentioned, the material is easily fuzzed up by the hook part of the fastener tape, as it just attaches onto the fabric itself, rather than a loop part.I think this is made as a back brace rather than as a compression bandage for the chest, and even the tag literally says it's a brace.I ordered a large, but even that's way too small for my chest, and it slides down easily, and doesn't cover my whole chest area. I'm a larger woman (and there's inflammation, which is why I need to compress the area), and so this just isn't a good size at all. It's plenty long, but not at all wide/tall enough to be effective for full chest compression.Also, the product comes with an insert that sort of begs us not to leave negative or neutral reviews, which is unprofessional at best, and rude at worst, acting like customers' opinions are a problem rather than important feedback. If you don't want negative or neutral reviews, don't sell a substandard product. Or at least be honest about what your product is in your advertising, so people aren't disappointed....Key to ratings:***** - well above average - best I’ve seen**** - above average - very good quality*** - average - not bad, not great** - below average - I probably wish I'd gotten something different* - a waste of resources - I wish this had never been made
