Revainrating 4 out of 5

FOR POSTOPERATIVE WOMEN / TRANS MEN

Here is a cis woman who was ordered for a post hysterectomy. It is well suited for this purpose. It's the right support, long enough to cover surgical incisions in my lower abdomen (and I have a long torso), and supportive enough and shaped enough to be worn braless (40DD here, that's it). I recommend taking more than one size. I usually wear XL in tops (5ft 5in, 215lbs, big chest, thin waist), ordered XL/XXL and it's too small. Just for your information. I've also seen myself wearing this after recreating it under my clothes as spanks type outerwear and it worked well, especially as it lifts the chest nicely without pinching or like extra appendages from the armpits to stand out. For me it doesn't roll or create painful tension at the bottom where the fabric ends. Trans Men - If you're just looking for a binder, this ** probably isn't the product for you. Breast tissue is much more elastic than upper body tissue, and this line of demarcation on the chest creates buoyancy. Doesn't tighten the chest at all. **If you have a smaller bust and/or are ok with lacing (or if you like wearing this type of product for more comfort) then this might work...Also if you are looking for more upper body definition than lacing will likely work well to give a more masculine look/shape to a larger female torso. I'm very overweight, but I have the typical hourglass shape: big boobs, thin waist, big hips, and it all conveniently compresses into a much straighter torso. (Tested before surgery with my normal body shape). When I tested it post-op with the abdomen filled with surgical insufflation gas (apple-shaped torso), it was less effective for that linear definition of the torso, but it could also be because I was already pretty linear with the apple-shaped torso.. .and so I was expecting the shirt to make me more of a 6, less of an apple, LOL, but that definitely didn't happen. So for the hourglass figure this seems VERY effective in creating a more linear torso. It was less effective for the apple form, but still good. Hope that helps.
