CzSalus Summer time Lipedema, Lymphedema Support Slimming Lighter Weight Medium Compression Flat Knit Leggings

I bought these to wear on a long drive at the end of august when it was swelteringly hot! I always swell very badly on my 10 hour drive. I put these on and while they are very tight and take a few minutes to put on the first time, they are not too tight to wear- they are perfect! After the first time, they are slightly easier, but still work perfectly! I have made this trip many times and I am always so swollen in my legs, ankles and feet. During the drive, I can feel my legs and feet swelling during the drive and afterward my skin is so tight and it’s extremely uncomfortable. This trip on both drives there and back, I put these leggings on and there was absolutely NO SWELLING!! I bought the small. I am 5’ 3 1/2”, 135 lbs and these summertime leggings came down over my ankle and halfway on to my feet. They stayed put and did not ride up off my foot. They were so cool compared to what I thought they would feel like. They aren’t very thick, but you cannot see through the black pair I bought and they have a firm compression. I wore them under a skort and it even fit bigger than normal! Lol. I would not hesitate to buy these if you are considering them. My Lymphedema therapist recommended them and I am so thankful she did!! I give them 5 stars over all and the reason I only gave three stars on sheerness is that you cannot see through them- which I like!!

I have always had swelling in my legs ever since I could remember. I wear socks and the indentation would remain there for hours. Doctors don’t mention anything even when I tell them. Then my nurse friend with 25yrs experience saw my ankles for the first time and only time and said ‘ your legs are swollen!?” They are not swollen like edema swollen because that would mean when you press into the skin, a finger tip imprint would be seen and remain for seconds then disappear. Mine is subtle, but when wearing something like socks, bike shorts, underwear….it leaves an imprint for hours. So after some research, I discovered I may have lipedema. I exercise and eat healthy. If I lose weight, I only lose it in my upper body which looks too thin and makes my bones more visible. Meanwhile, my bottom half is thicker. So I try to maintain a healthy weight. These leggings are great. It’s always a challenge to dress into compression items but worth it. I wear them every night and they compress pretty good but not unbearable and as time goes by, they get more comfortable. They do what they are supposed to. I really dislike compression socks because I have swelling on my entire lower half but these I love. I don’t have a belly but they do bunch up around the waist a little. I can and do pull them up to my bra line and have to adjust a couple times but when I sleep they stay put. When I take them off in the morning, they leave the imprint of the bubble like pattern. Which does go away after an hour but that’s just me. Hope this review helps someone. I’m so glad I gave them a try.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Light weight for more comfort in the heat.

I ordered these for a slightly slighter weight and cooler compressive legging. I must say that they are very comfortable and more comfortable than the Bioflect brand. My only complaint is they aren't as compressive as I thought they'd be. I think I could maybe size down for a tighter fit. I ordered the size M based on my measurements. I also ordered the K2 in the a M (same size chart chart) and the K2 are incredibly tight on the back of my upper thight, directly below the buttocks. The K2 is so tight in this area that they leave a very painful crease/indent in that area which you don't want in compression.

Female: 5'4'', size 8, generally a medium in most bottoms. 140lbsI followed the sizing chart exactly and it said I should choose a medium. I did, and a it was correct/perfect fit for me.I really like these. For compression leggings these are fairly comfortable. I like the amount of stretch, I LOVE the massaging texture. I even love the impression marks it leaves behind when you remove the leggings. Makes me feel like it's doing something. So far I have NOT noticed them being see through, I will update if I notice they are. However I generally plan on wearing these under clothings, or with a tunic long shirt. Mostly because the waistline isnt attractive. I prefer a thicker styled waistline if I was to wear a shorter top. I digress.I would and I will order another pair of these .

I like them and they certainly compress…just concerned it might be a little too much! I measured and ordered exactly according to the website…are these indents normal after wearing for a couple of hours!?

I really like these leggings. I ordered an XL and they are very very snug. I normally wear a size 16US. They are thick enough to wear as leggings under a cute dress and no one would know they are a medical compression device. I’m ordering a second pair in size XXL because I’m not sure how tight these should be. Also, I have a huge bulky bandage on my leg. I was wondering if the bigger size would be a bit easier to wear.They are rather difficult to put on. My husband has to help me. But once they are on, and not twisted, they feel really good. And look cute. They may be a little warm in hot weather. But I am wearing them in fall and winter and possibly spring.They are a high quality item.

The XXL fits me perfectly. When I read other reviews saying the leggings go over your ankles I was sure they wouldn't on me. I was also sure I wouldn't like it anyway. Wrong on both counts! These fit my body like a glove. I feel tucked in, but not squeezed. It definitely helps with pain at night and in the morning. I used to wake up with knee, back, and/or thigh pain every night. And stiff as a board in the morning. I still need to do my stretches in the morning to really get going, but I can start them right away now. Plus, the compression and/or fabric helps with temperature regulation, so fewer night sweats. The best thing, though? I can sleep on my side with no knee pain even without a pillow prop, which used to make me hot.Doubt I can sleep without them anymore.
