Works great, just what I needed!
I'm 5'2 with a short torso and right now, with swelling, I'm 34"- 32"-43", yes big hips, I know... I just had lipo in several areas, about a month ago, including my upper and lower abdomen. My lymphatic masseuse suggested I try one of these to help flatten out some minor uneven areas and so far it works great. No it doesnt cover my whole stomach, but if it did, it wouldn't be one size fits all. It covers most of my stomach and all the areas I need.
All of these people complaining about not being able to bend, the board being too stiff, etc.I don't think understand the concept. The whole idea is to help keep your stomach smooth and flat as you heal. Of course it's going to prevent you, somewhat, from moving in ways that will crease and bend you... common sense. I think it works exactly as it's intended to and I don't find it uncomfortable at all. I've definitely seen a difference in swelling and am flatter. You do need to wear a properly fitting compression garment (very snug) with it to get desired effect. I also have bought and use the lumbar mould for my lower back. It's great!
For those of you that don't like the stiffness and immobility, get some lipo foam. It doesnt work as well for flattening but it helps minimize creasing when you do bend or sit and it doesn't hurt a sensitive tummy. I highly recommend it.
