Very new on here, just booked my surgery but looking into compression vests - does anyone have any recommendations? I've heard about the macom ones, does anyone have one?

I wore a macom 2070L while I was recovering. Good compression, comfortable and wasn't noticeably visible under shirts, so I'd recommend it.

Thanks! I think I'll give that one a go.. I've heard the swelling can go down with gravity? Do you think the one with the briefs attached would be really uncomfortable?

Yeah I thought so to with the 2068 brief thing. I think the code i got was 2069b because I called the company up and they was helpful said it would actually be more comfy. they was defiantly right . was skeptical but turned out to be a good purchase from macom.

Hi Chris, I bought the 2068B and the 2069B from macom in the end and sent back the 2068B as the one with shorts was so much comfier and way easier to wear especially at work! I think i might get one of the long vests for a few weeks after the surgery, have you had your surgery?

Thanks Chris that's very helpful. i think i'm going to go for the sleeveless one as I quite often wear short sleeves! Do they get quite hot?

my macom garment is good does it job, and I found that it can also be a slimming  garment so I still am having use for it which is good
